Did you have an MRI done and saw the results? What a shitty doctor to make you feel so terrible, she should encourage you that you can overcome it. I completely over came my pinched nerve just by bending forward picking strawberries. My neck was hanging down and I did it for a long enough time for it to decompress on it's own.
Maybe you don't like the things you tried, try other methods until you find something that you feel comfortable doing for at least 5 minutes at a time. You need that time for it to loosen up a bit, I think you can do it, just find something that feels good while you do it. Sometimes I will even lay on my ottoman with my neck hanging over one end and my feet on the ground on the other, I get a nice arch stretch, it's a hurts so good feeling. Or even grabbing an arm of a sofa and pulling back with your behind will give a good stretch.
