Well, in my oppinion you must avoid CBs telling ATC your intentions in order that the service providing to the rest of the traffic by ATC is safe and correct. If you canīt contact to ATC, then I wouldnīt wait and I would make my decision, I mean to avoid CBs keeping in mind my TCAS.

I donīt agree to select SQ 7700, It is not a good idea because in that case everyone would be performing a missed approach instructed by ATC as you would be in an urgent situation.

I think the ATC should have given clearance to enter holding pattern until the mess is solved. I donīt understand why ATC allowed that stress situation as there are a lot of IF or IAF inside TMA or even you can say: 360š OVER HERE

If your endurance let you a hold over a point... I would make that decission until weather improves.
