What Causes Weakness And Pain In Leg And Hips Accompanied With Stool Incontinence ?

I began to notice leg weakness last summer. Not being able to walk far with some pain/locking of hips on stairs. Last summer I could not climb the ladder to get back on pontoon. Decreased activity due to weakness/fatigue while walking and have gained weight. Last week we were at Riverwalk in San Antonio and didn t even walk that far but calf muscles tight and painful. I barely made it up the steps in the courtesy van. I have to go up steps one at a time. Long car ride back to ND and after returning home I did a lot of cleaning with the thought to get muscles moving again.Then extreme stiffness with low back pain. I have had a cyst on spine with injections about 10 years ago. Accompanying symptoms are urinary urgency with incontinence and recent episode of bowel incontinence. Also, spent winter in southern Texas and probably not related but have chest congestion and cough for 2 months. Other past medical history to include gastric bypass in 2008 with daily diarrhea, hypertension, and dysthymia. Family history of ovarian cancer, multiple myeloma and colon cancer Was wondering if I should get a massage, try a chiropractor, try more exercise, or see my doctor.
