Any difficulty in diagnosis of PMR?

Several questions....Did you ever have the PMR symptoms of limited movement in the morning, such as trouble getting out of bed or raising your arms above your head? Was your pain consistent throughout the day? Did your Dr do any blood work to check for inflammation? Thanks.

Yep, getting out of bed difficult along w getting dressed, rolling over in bed, picking up stuff off of floor, raising arms. I had tons of blood work done just to rule out other stuff. Since there’s no certain test for PMR (especially since my labs all normal) it was just a process of elimination for diagnosis.
Pain was the worst after being in bed all night and did get better after I started moving around more.
