Neglected chlorisis in bluberries

I have 3 blueberry bushes planted in Nov '12. They had fruit in summer '13, but but this year failed to produce anything and looked sickly. Thanks mostly to recent posts here I'm pretty sure it's chlorosis due to high pH. I never did a soil test on the planting location. It's a clay soil location but I did mix peat and have been mulching heavily w/ pine needles. I'm hoping to do a proper soil test very soon.
I added elemental sulfur on top in late June and again just yesterday. Just wondering if anyone thinks there is a faster way to get the pH down or if the blueberries might die over the winter due to not having generated energy for storage? It might already be too late to do anything since it seems to be getting cold early this year around here.
Thanks.
