Spleen inflamed, Fever, No cancer

I am writing to see if anyone has any ideas for my father in law in Japan.  He is in the hospital and the oncologists, and disease specialists cannot diagnose his condition.  He has had a fever for over a month, diminishing strength, trouble breathing, and inflamed lymph nodes and spleen.  It is my understanding that he has a low white blood cell count as well.  

Does anyone have any ideas as to what else we can look for?  We are really reaching here.

Thanks for any advice.

Has he had his liver functioning tested? That may be something to look into.
