If you are really worried about visual symptoms - the ER is the place to be at the weekend or at night.

Sorry - there is no such thing. 80% of patients have a raised ESR (sed rate) and CRP, 20% don't and anyway they will be elevated due to many things. GCA is a clinical diagnosis, i.e. based on the symptoms. If you are very lucky them may find a positive temporal artery biopsy - but less than half of patients with probably GCA have such a result and once you are taking even 15-20mg pred pred the chances of that fall each week.
