See a local doctor: The weakness and bowel and bladder complaints are concerning to me. I recommend seeking local treatment as soon as possible.

Prompt medical care: The combination of symptoms you describe is worrisome even if they don't all have a common cause. Pressure on the lower spinal cord, nerve roots or sciatic nerve could explain some of your symptoms. You don't mention what part of your left side you're feeling pain & pressure but that won't change my recommendation that you get prompt medical care.
