Hi,
The symptoms seem to be due to flare in vasculitis and I suggest an urgent rheumatologist review for immuno-suppressive therapy as well as steroid pulse. A repeat CRP, RA factor and ANA analysis to monitor flare may be needed. If unremarkable ENA profile may also be needed. If this therapy fails newer treatment regimens like with rituximab may be helpful.
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
