Hi. I Have Petechia Type Rash In 4 Places On

Hi. I have petechia type rash in 4 places on my lower legs. Each about 1-2 inches. It's gotten darker and larger since August. After 4 doctors and 9 blood tests for everything from kidney, clotting, platelets, Lupus to Leukemia (all blood tests are normal!), the diagnosis is a "reaction to an injury/bruising because of NSAIDs". I had taken a LOT of Ibuprofin in the past few months. I stopped the Ibuprofin 9 days ago. My question is: how long off of NSAIDs before my blood will return to normal? Or how long off of NSAIDs until the petechia will start fading? Weeks? Months?
