Precursor symptoms to PMR?

I have GCA, and one of my symptoms was a lot of fatigue in my jaw muscles when I was chewing. Eating was pretty unpleasant because of that fatigue. I never had any headaches. A doctor told me about 20 percent of people with GCA don't have headaches. I had other symptoms including low grade fever, night sweats, and tenderness around my ears and on my scalp.

How did they diagnose your GCA? I have medical tests in a couple of days and believe they should investigate this in addition to PMR.
