I think you should call him and express your distress. Exactly like you posted. You were very diplomatic but also expressed your needs.
Also, I know it is early in the relationship, but could you do a phone session between your appointments? Those work for some people and not for others. It took me awhile to figure out how to actually talk about stuff on the phone but now it really fits my schedule on some weeks.
I also agree that sometimes they forget that we have lives too and rescheduling is difficult. I say this as someone who has to ask to move standing appointments more than my Therapist does. He always tells me "my time is my time" unless there is a real compelling reason to change things.
I'm sorry you haven't been able to work. I know how that can be. Try to do the things that sooth yourself. Reading works for me and babble...
