Deb, it sounds to me like you have RSD or the crap name of CRPS.
RSD is where the sympathetic nervous system generally from a crush injury gets stuck in over drive. It will go full body, via down the spinal column to affect all limbs. When I have a situation either physical assault or emotional, my body will freeze up. The freezing up is the sympathetic and autonomic nervous systems we don't control doing their thing.

I would find another doctor, preferably an anesthologist as they are the ones that treat RSD/CRPS. Like all doctors, some are good, some are bad. So best to ask around your area to try to find the best one. They generally work in pain clinics.

It might be good to explain how this started if you know. Generally people get RSD from a crush injury to the ganglion nerve and the body does not recover. Or a permanent cast on and when the body swells the cast is too tight ( crushing the nerve). But I do know of people who do not know how theirs really started...
