But, I understand that many people go for years—even decades—without diagnosis. The spectrum of Evans syndrome in adults: new insight into the disease based on the analysis of 68 cases.

Blood tests can also reveal a low platelet count, low red blood cell count or a higher than normal level of creatinine, a waste product normally removed by your kidneys. To confirm a diagnosis of HUS, your doctor is likely to perform a physical exam and recommend lab tests, including:.
