PDO SQL Query Not Limiting

I'm trying to get results from a query to the database but the LIMIT isn't working. When I put LIMIT 10 it returns no results. Am I missing something here?

Here is my code. I'm trying to figure out what the reason is for this strange behavior.

$username = "derek";
$query = $conn->prepare('SELECT * FROM notifications WHERE (needs=:username OR worker=:username1) ORDER BY CASE WHEN needs=:username2 THEN needsread ELSE workerread END, time DESC LIMIT 10');

$query->bindParam(':username', $username);
$query->bindParam(':username1', $username);
$query->bindParam(':username2', $username);
$query->execute();

Ended up being something with my if statements. I was getting the results but after filtering through my if statements the 10 results I wanted to show shouldn't have shown. So after fixing my query to the database it worked. Here's my query:

$workneed = "workneed";
$follow="follow";

$query = $conn->prepare('SELECT * FROM notifications WHERE CASE WHEN needs=:username THEN type=:workneed END OR CASE WHEN worker=:username THEN type=:follow END ORDER BY CASE WHEN needs=:username THEN needsread ELSE workerread END, time DESC LIMIT 10');
$query->bindParam(':username', $username);
$query->bindParam(':workneed', $workneed);
$query->bindParam(':follow', $follow);
$query->execute();
