The Ecosprin contains Aspirin, in cases such as yours, it's used for its blood thinning properties. However, it doesn't usually cause these types of side effects.

The culprit is more than likely the Storvas-EZ, which contains Atorvastatin and Ezetimibe, it's used to help lower cholesterol and this class of medications is very well known to cause these types of side effects.

But it's generally not a good idea to just stop taking it abruptly, without consulting your doctor, because it may cause some rebound effects.

Have you tried seeing if there is another local doctor that will provide you with a consultation?
