Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Brow discharge and blood in the urine indicate bleeding from urinary tract. Such bleeding can be caused by too high Warfin dosage, urinary tract infection, prostate enlargement or even bladder cancer.
Numbness from the waist down is rather a symptom of nerve compression, on the spine most likely. It is more possible especially if you have back pain and pain while walking.

I suggest you to visit your doctor, have INR checked at first. You should also consult urologist and have abdominal ultrasound. For spine diagnostics, MRI should be done.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
