does the transmission go into gear at all or is it locking you out of all gears? is it making any noise? are you sure your clutch is even hydraulic? are you sure you bled it right? have you attempted adjusting it? what does your fluid level look like? sounds to me like a hydraulic problem (or broken clutch cable if not hydraulic...)- the clutch isn't disengaging.
but as for your original question, you don't have to replace the clutch disc and pressure plate when you replace the throwout bearing, but it would be a good idea if you had the money to go ahead and do it while you've got it apart.

i doubt you screwed your syncro from a couple shifts. those things are fucking tough as shit, it really does take alot to fuck them up.... and you don't need to rebuild your entire transmisison because your 2nd syncro is fucked. also, you can replace your transmission but if you don't find the problem then it's going to happen again.
anyway, i'm almost sure that your master cylinder is fucked. try this... get someone to watch the fluid level in the clutch fluid reservoir while you push the pedal in. if the fluid raises at all, that means the fluid is bypassing the piston in the master cylinder and you need to replace it.
