Interstitial Lung Disease

My mother is suffering from ILD since 2011. Recently she is facing continuous issues in terms of constant fever and severe weakness leading to increase in breathing problem. She has also got stones in her gall bladder which cannot be operated since her body is very weak. The tests and CT scans show no major problems and doctors are unable top figure out the reasons for the fever. I saw some videos oN YouTube regarding stem cell treatment for ILD. I wanted to understand if it is done in India and is it effective for ILD.
