Suggest Treatment For Numbness On The Thigh

Hello I have had numbness on my left anterior thigh so I went to a chiropractor and she worked on me twice. Afterwards I got pretty bad bruises on my legs so the chiropractor referred me to a medical doctor. He ordered blood work for my platelets etc. and the blood work all came back normal. If I had some sort of std like HIV or something would that have shown up in the bloodwork?
