Q: Circulation or nerve problems ?

I have been in and out of the doctors many times the last 6 months for what i feel are related issues.... Usually i'm told i seem fine and should eat better or exercise. I feel like insisting on something but i cant find much info... Here is a summary (all of which i went to a doctor for)

I used to wake in the middle of the night with intense anal or rectal pain, all this year, up to one time i went to the hospital. that suddenly stopped after that worst episode. (it was really really bad! i actually thought i was very very sick)

a few weeks later...
I have gotten a pire or hemmorid (a few weeks ago) and never have been constipaded... well not this year. When it healed i felt alot of tingling my leg.

I keep getting alot of numbness in that area. and have problems with that leg, it feels tight like i cant step as far. (i get a sharpish pain like if you stretch a musle too far)

This week....
Now my right testicle (and area) goes numb immediately when i sit down. if feels funny when i walk around...but doest hurt. like its large. when again it doesnt hurt...but i swear to god its like i feel pressureized / numb all the time?

its to the point where i cant really sit with my legs straight forward because i cant shake the feeling im crushing something...even though i know im not!

I'd like to believe these problems are all disjointed but the fact is they all have happend at pretty much the same time.. and area.... I tell this to the clinic i go to but the usually tell me to relax. Should i go back? is there anything i should ask them to look into?

I have been 4 times and am starting to feel silly...yet i feel like i shouldnt feel this way.

Have you seen a neurologist? The numbness and tingling are consistent with a nerve being impinged upon. I would see a neurologist. A clinic probably only has a gp to see patients. Perhaps it is time to go to a specialist.
