AA + celiac

Hi,
I, too, have more than one autoimmune disease. I have many food & environmental allergies, plus celiac disease, and now, aplastic anemia. At this point, I am considered "moderate" and am treating strictly from a holistic viewpoint, with yoga, acupuncture, saunas, tai chi, juicing, and a very careful rotation vegan diet. I was doing well and my counts were starting to slowly inch up, and then this past weekend ended up hospitalized for 3 days with intense pain and vomiting, due to a poorly functioning colon from the celiac. The stress from that apparently caused my platelets to drop to 25k and wbc's to drop to 1.4. So back to square one. Does anyone out there have any experience, good or bad, of treating with a wait-and-see, holistic path?
