Is A Test For Syphilis Included When Doing Tests To Confirm Vasculitis?

Yesterday i discovered a small rash on my feet/ankles and went to the doctors, they believe it is a form of vasculitis, and assured me it should be nothing too bad. However they sent off blood tests and said i would hear if anything is bad from them.

I would like to know if the usual blood test they do will test for syphilis, i am confident i don't have this however the symptoms have worried me and i just want to be sure that if they say the test is clear, then they would have tested for this as well as other things ?
