Get it evaluated NOW: This situation demands immediate medical attention. A significant rash is seen in several disorders, including systemic vasculitis or connective tissue disorders. The sudden appearance of significant edema demands that kidney disease and other serious issues be ruled out. See a doctor now. If you have no doctor go to the er.

See Doc: Definitely see your doctor. An echocardiogram will tell if this is a cardiac issue, a venous doppler will make sure you don't have blot clots in your legs or pelvis, a TSH blood test will rule out an underactive thyroid.
