What Causes Tingling Sensation And Numbness In The Left Thigh?

I have had electrical shocklike jolts in my outer left thigh. The area is now partially numb all the time. The patch is about the size of a football. I have also been having my hands, fingers and sometimes arms go numb or fall asleep while sleeping or holding a cell phone. Not sure if they are linked, just thought I would give all the tingling, sleeping, numbness, painful items to you.
