Hi Hopeful,
Rich was tested for viruses and vitamin/mineral deficiencies before being given his AA diagnosis. in fact, I remember his haematologist saying exactly what you said, that it was a disease of exclusion. He hasn't been tested for lupus though, definitely worth investigating further.
Thanks for the good advice,
Sara
