A 50-year-old male asked about a 78-year-old male:

Would a cbc at hospital dermatology (most countries) include anti-body test for dle which is also testing for sle all at once in one blood test?

No: Those tests are different, cbc panel doesn't routinely include them, have to be ordered separately
