Default Clutch/Tranny problems with good description...Help please =/

Okay so about a month or so ago my clutch started slipping. It's still drivable however, and it only slips when I really get on it in my low gears. Like i can beat on it in my high gears and it doesn't slip. Only thru 1st and 2nd if I really get on it. Then when it starts to slip all I have to do is like turn it off for a minute and then it's fine again. Wierd isn't it? Also I'm noticing my shifting is getting really really bad now. Within the past week or so my gears have gotten really REALLY stiff. To the point where I have to use a decent amount of force to get it in gear while driving, and even doing such my gears are grinding bad now too because of this. I figured that I might have a leaking master cylinder for the cause of that problem, but I don't *think* I have one cuz my brake fluid level for my clutch isn't dropping. In other words if my cylinders were leaking wouldn't I be filling that bad boy back up often? Also my friend told me I have a little bit of a tranny leak. I was also wondering if maybe that could be the cause of my problems too? In other words I know my clutch is shot, but is that the only problem? Could it cause my gears to get really stiff? Or is this a problem with something else?

I just had my clutch replaced and tranny work done like 6 months ago or so too, and it's already messed up again. The guys said he put a "bearing" set in my tranny and checked all the gears back then and said the tranny was good. He also put me in a new O.E.M. clutch.

Thoughts?
