Cold, clammy extremities such as the feet and fingers can indicate conditions such as Thrombophlebitis or other cardiovascular problems. I'd suggest that you follow up with a cardiologist or neurologist to get a better idea of what these symptoms might be caused by. But I think that they are serious enough to seek medical attention.

Have you scheduled an appointment yet? Orthopedic surgeons generally deal with back pain, so if you see a number of different specialist, be sure to coordinate communication.
