Christine do you need a referral to see a specialist? If so have your gp give you one for a spine surgeon or neurosurgeon. I know there is an excellent chance the arm and hand numbness and pain is coming from your neck. I'm not sure the gp can diagnose this. I'm just not sure if the leg pain must be from your lumbar spine or elsewhere. Good luck and let us know what happens.
