I would suggest to discuss the possibility of Livercirrhosis as one of the cause for pedal oedema. Do get back to me with all complete laboratory reports. What is your Serum Albumin level?
In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Wishing you happy and healthy life
Take Care
