hi
its like she is having bleeding tendencies due to the use of ecospirin. it is one of the complications of ecospirin on long run. ecospirin prevents platelet aggregation which is necessary for prevention of bleeding. to know it get blood test called PT and APTT and bleeding time. it will give the reason of bleeding. its advisable to stop ecospirin now.
swelling of her legs and raised creatinine points towards renal failure. consult a nephrologist. it might be a comlication of hypertention called as hypertensive nephropathy.
wish you good recovery
