I have had a numb from the waist down feeling, sort of like the anesthetic at the dentist when it is just starting to wear off, but I've always been able to move my legs.

Sorry, but this is really worrying me. Can you at least call the hospital and ask them to check with the NS on call?
I second Katie. At the bare minimum call your doctors phone number. Most of them have an after hours answering service or nurse who answers and 'screens' symptoms to see if they are serious or not. If they ask you to make this call, then say yes it is an emergency.
