- body feels very heavy

Make an appt with a good neurologist and take along your notes / symptoms and when they occurred and duration (if known)...

Blood in urine...this is not normal...you definately need to have that resolved before anything else.

IF you have an untreated bladder / kidney infection could cause other symptoms that you have described. And it is not to be taken lightly.
