Awful. He wouldnt rerun or do any tests. He said someone else will do them but they wont. They all send me to rheumatology. I got a rash from the sun on the walk into the building and he completely ignored it. I stood up for myself and asked to be retested/testing multiple times to the point of crying and he said the one and only test he did on me is the only answer. He did an avise test a year ago and it was low negative. Ridiculous. Things can change

I'm so sorry. Do you have a primary care doctor? If you do, perhaps speak to them and ask for help. If not, try to change doctors. Perhaps file a complaint with whatever health system this doctor is a part of.
And yes, just because a test was negative a year ago does not mean it can't change. My rheumy does regular testing on me checking to see if anything new has come up. Autoimmune diseases tend to run in packs - get one and another is likely to crop up.
