Pain in upper right thigh.?

Question: What would the cause be for shooting, burning pain in the outer part of the upper right thigh? The pain is about a 4 on a scale of 1-10. The pain comes and goes at will, no matter the position I'm in or the actvity I'm doing. I could be laying on the couch watching t.v or hard at work at the local foundry. That part of my thigh is consisently partially numb. The pain comes and goes. I had a Dr's appt today. Checked in 30 min. early and realized I didn't have my co pay. told the receptionist that I'd go to bank (bank is down the street from Dr's office)get the money for the co pay and be back with in 15 min. She told me I'd have to rechedule, I couldn't believe I had to reschedule even tough I was 30 min early and would be back 15 min before scheduled appointment. I agreed to reschudle, the receptionist said I'm sorry but I don't handle the scheduling of appointments. I got irritated and left. Any suggestions on where this pain is from or why I'm having this pain?
