Default bruising to spinal cord?

hi
i was in a car accident early last year where there car flipped 4 times, shortly after i developed a 'shake' in my legs which is very noticeable when i bend them this is what i have been told by a neurologist on the nhs : the shake is 'bizzare', the random muscle spazams, weekness and tingling are nothing to worry about as had my entire spine and brain mri and was all normal diagnosis: pyhscological :-/

then was seen by a private neurologist organised by solicitor for my compensation claim : he said the bizzare 'shake' was a 1 beat patella clonus likely to be caused by bruising to the spinal cord and the muscle spazams weakness and tingling was all caused by this.

told the nhs neurolgist this and took the report from the solicitor confirming this but they are still saying it is physcological

i dont understand how they can say the shake is physcological when it causes pain any one have ideas on how i can get them to listen to me and diagnose this so i can get treatment ?
