According to scientific studies the Sed rate and the C-reactive can be normal and a person can still have the disease ( PMR). This is also stated on the Mayo website under PMR.

Oddly enough, I've had high markers for inflammation during times when my PMR was in remission and I've had no pain.

My sed rate and C-reactive are also in normal range yet my low level symptoms remain the same. Dr says prednisone is working. Tried reducing from 7.5 to 5 and shoulder pain immediate recurred.
