What Causes Muscle Stiffness And Pain In Neck And Back After Injury?

I m a nurse and was recently injured at work when a patient grabbed my hand and rolled over ... He was a very large patient and I had just had a baby 7weeks prior ... I have sense then had muscle stiffness and pain in my neck and back .... I am having numbness and tingling in my hands , feet, and back ...as well as altered sensations ( hot/cold). Muscle twitching in my back and legs that is involuntary ...I have had trouble breathing and some episodes of my heart racing... An MRI,CT,EKG,CBC,Echocardiogram had been done and came back normal . I am currently seeing a workmans comp doctor as well as a primary care doctor and physical therapist ... I have finally received a referral to a neurologist but it will be over a month before he can see me . When I take my flexeril and tramadol it helps somewhat ... But I still feel like there s a live wire in my back and I still have shortness of breathe .... Please help! Any ideas on what is going on???
