My answer: I believe you were informed that you had problems but were not "significant". I do not quite understand whether you do or don't have a pinched nerve in the neck, and you do not say what body part was CT scanned. Nor am I clear about anxiety. Best to sit down with your doctor, be assertive, and have all of this clarified
