Hi @cindywho01 and welcome to Connect! I can't imagine how troubling this must be for you and how frustrating it is to not have answers. While I cannot provide a diagnosis online, I did find some information on potential causes of blood in urine that I hope you find helpful: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/blood-in-urine/basics/causes/con-20032338

Have you considered seeing a specialist?

Hi @cindywho01. Never ignore blood you see in the urine. Get checked by your doctor, especially since you are experiencing other symptoms such as changes in weight, energy, and mood. Your doctor can run a series of tests to find out what the cause may be and work with you to confirm an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
