weakness or numbness on left side

[nan242]

I have had weakness occasionaly on left leg when upset.  For the past several months I have weakness or numbness
on my left side which does not leave my left leg but my arm.  I have had Brain Scan, testing for thyroid, and neurological testing.  The neurologist states that my nerves are manifesting to cause the numbness.  I can feel
my left side at touch so I don't know whether to call it weakness.  It wears me out by afternoon with excessive standing.  I do walk most days a 1 1/2 miles.  My doctor has given my antipressants and anxiety medicine.  I don't feel depressed but anxious and I sigh a lot or take deep breaths.  I thinking if it is nerves, that when I was a child
was inappropiated touched by my father and I don't trust most men except for my husband.  I see most men as
pretetors so I am thinking it could be all related.  I am presently seeing my MD and chiropractor.
