Question Description: 

I sent an "letter to editor" to a journal. That manuscript is still under "Editorial review". Surprisingly, I found the title of my letter with "Reply to letter to editor" prefix in recently published issue of a renowned journal published by medknow. I read the article and it is the reply to my letter. Now, my 1st question: how readers will know about the question while they are reading reply to that question? 2nd question: Is it ethical to publish reply to my letter with the title of my letter without publishing my letter?
