Do you mean you had a blood draw and the doctor never got the results? That seems like a mistake on the part of the system. But I had a sort of reverse situation the first time I got PMR. When I explained my symptoms my PCP said "I know just what you have. We'll get a blood test and you can start treatment right away." But the blood test came back negative, so he sent me to a Rheumatologist who said. "I agree with Dr. X. Let's take another blood test." He reported it not only came back negative, but it wasn't even close to what you would expect for it to be PMR. But despite that, he prescribed prednisone and said we would go by whether it worked or not. It did. About 5 years later it came back. This time the blood test agreed.
