This combination of symptoms is concerning as it could be due to serious abdominal problems. He could have digestive problems or even cancer in his stomach or colon, especially with the blood. Hiccups could result from irritation in the digestive tract. He might be having problems with his liver such as cirrhosis. The leg swelling can be from cirrhosis or blood clots. Blood clots can occur by themselves or in combination with cancer. If he were my patient, I would want to see him immediately and start testing for these possibilities. Hope this answers your query. If you have more questions, I would be happy to answer them.
