Yes. It is always possible to have any genetic or health condition with a clean test result. It is a proven fact that doctors do not pay a lot of attention to the patient themselves. There trained to pay attention to the test results. Thats why the incidents of malpractice have skyrocketed over the last decade. They get paid more to treat you, than they do to cure you. They will wait until it's impossible to ignore before taking action to ensure there is a condition they can treat. They WANT you to be sick. If people were truly healthy doctors, and hospitals would go out of business and the AMA, and FDA would go bankrupt.

Go to a homeopathic, or naturalist doctor. They really like to help people and will be more likely to be honest. They also will have access to better methods to better your health that works with your body rather than against it with synthetic crap that poisons us everyday.

My aunt had Lupus. I took the doctors a long time to finally diagnosis with Lupus. I'm in the medical field and it sounds like you do have Lupus from reading your symptoms. Maybe you should try another doctor.
