What Causes Discomfort Below Waist?

I have suddenly developed a discomfort below the waist, midline. I would describe it as mild, but I have never felt this before. Urine is clear, no trouble urinating. Feels a little like gas in the sygmoid area perhaps? I have made an appointment with my Doctor for Friday. My hands were numb and tingly from about 6:30PM to 8:00PM, but as iwarm up in my house this has gotten better. The tempurature outside is 55F, so the numbness would be unusual for me. I have no fever.
