Wow, first off welcome to the board..
Secondly, I'm sorry your going through what you are. I know first hand that it can be very frustrating especially when the doctor does not show a special interest in your case.
One thing to remember when dealing with doctors is this. They work for you and it's not the other way around. If you want the referral then demand it. This is your body you have to deal with and I highly suggest that you see someone that specializes in that field to get the quickest resolution possible.
If I reading this right and you are talking about a drop foot problem, I would get this handled ASAP. And please keep us posted.
Mark can help you better with doctors in your area and has a wonderful service that may benefit you. Take his advice.
Good Luck
