Gfi GFCI Outlets work... plugsreceptacles & lights in 3 rooms don't

lights and plugs have died in 3 rooms of my home. None of the Circuit Breakers were tripped and they all test fine with my multimeter. I have turned the circuit switches on and off (all the way OFF so the switch is completely reset) and no luck.

I have checked the GFIGFCI outlets throughout the house and they all test and reset fine. (Those GFIGFCI outlets are all working fine anyway).

I do have two or three other plugsreceptacles in other bathrooms and in the kitchen that read: LEVITON GFIGFCI PROTECTED but these do not have any reset buttons at all... (They are also all working and testing with the multimeter shows they are pushing 120).

Just before the power went in those rooms... I noticed the light fixture in the bathroom was flickering. As a precaution, I've NOW disconnected that light fixture from the wall and capped the exposed wires. I also want to point out that the bathroom with no lights has full power to the GFIGFCI plug but no power anywhere else.

Should I replace all my plugsreceptacles and light switches?
