Her complaints would usually begin with diarrhea thin watery stools, 12-15 times a day that would last for around 2 days, followed by generalized swelling of the body, legs, scalp, and eyes which made it difficult for her to open her eyes. She also complained of swelling of her hands and feet, as a result, she could not stand for long hours. There was body pain, weakness along with petechiae marks, particularly on the legs, that took about 10-12 days to heal. The petechiae were accompanied with rash and itching. These episodes would occur twice every year and last for 1-2 months. She had been on steroidal treatment for this in the past, without much relief.
