Yes, let it go now...

It should finish if you're testing the right device, and the LV is
properly assembled. If it reach the end of the device and find nothing,
you should restart LVM first to check that your PV/VG/LV are correctly
set up, and retry.
If it doesn't work after that, backup will be your last friend.
