wow, the loss is amazing, but how you are feeling isn't. Its tough when you have a flare up. DId you discuss with your rheumatologist what to do when you have these flare ups? It often seems that just when everything is working, our bodies try to make it harder on us. Maybe upping your calories to 1600 for the time being and taking a day off of exercise will help. DOn't stop with the exercise, but give yourself a day off and rest and maybe get in a hot tub or hot bath to quell the complaining muscles.
hope you feel better soon, and keep on trucking, your loss is amazing. Good for you!
