Hey Kajal . I'm a 19year old from delhi  suffering from the same disease... which rheumatologist are u seeing ?? My parents are doctors and have done a lot of research on the disease. I've been to almost all the good rheumatologists in Delhi , Ncr . They best one is Dr.Rohini Handa . he sits in apollo hospital , sarita vihar. I personally feel u should see him once..

lets be in touch..and have faith in god.. i hope we feel better soon .:-(
