Mesothelioma in the present times is one of the most dangerous cancers in the world. Its cure is impossible and even its detection is quite difficult. The symptoms of mesothelioma are very much similar to some of the commonly occurring diseases. As a result even if the patient is showing the signs of having mesothelioma, it would be difficult for the doctor to diagnose it as such. written by Sarah Adams
Although chemotherapy and surgery are the most common forms of treatment, participating in clinical trials can provide you with alternative mesothelioma treatment options. Increased awareness of mesothelioma and other asbestos-caused diseases has led to an increase on medical research to cure and control asbestos-caused cancers and related asbestos heart and respiratory diseases. Mesothelioma treatment and treatment options for advanced malignant mesothelioma are not limited to surgery and chemotherapy. written by Scott McClain
Asbestos is a natural mineral that was once used in the construction and home improvement industries. It was put on ceilings when it was mixed with aertex, it was used to make surfaces semi flame resistant and it was also mixed with cement as it is very strong. At one point asbestos was seen as a revolution for these industries as it was just so versatile – it was also deadly. No one realised at the time that every time they were exposed to asbestos that they were taking their life in their hands and putting themselves in grave danger. Asbestos is now banned but its legacy lives on in the thousands of people who are feeling the after effects of being exposed to it over the years. written by Scott McClain
Pericardial Mesothelioma is a very rare form of cancer that is found in the lining of the heart. Doctors agree that it is exposure to asbestos that causes Pericardial Mesothelioma. Those who suffer from it tend to have been involved in the building and construction industry at some point in their lives as asbestos was used in great quantities up until a few years ago. Today the use of asbestos is banned as experts now realise the damaging effects that it can have on people who are exposed to it. Unfortunately however this does not help the thousands of people who used asbestos on a daily basis for much of their adult working lives. As Pericardial Mesothelioma is so rare, it is thought to be responsible for just 10% of all the cases of diagnosed mesothelioma each year. written by Scott McClain
Malignant mesothelioma is a type of cancer that is quite rare; it affects only the thin wall of cells that line the internal organs and structures. This lining is called the mesothelium and malignant mesothelioma can manifest itself in three main ways. It can be pleural which affects the lungs, peritoneal which affects the abdominal cavity wall and pericardial which affects the lining in the heart. Experts believe that there is only one way to contract malignant mesothelioma and that is through exposure to asbestos. written by Scott McClain
Pleural Mesothelioma is a type of cancer that is most often found in people who have, at some point during their lives been exposed to high levels of asbestos. Asbestos is a type of naturally occurring mineral that was, for many years mixed with cement, plaster and paint and used in the interiors of houses. It was used as it is highly resistant to heat and is surprisingly strong. Unfortunately asbestos is made up of thin fibres which have since been found to be highly toxic to humans when they get into the body and it is these fibres that can be breathed in and cause a large number of health problems. written by Remy Vixamar

Mesothelioma is a curious ailment where the cells of mesothelium, a membrane that swathe and safeguard internal organs, become cancerous and start splitting up without control. These cancerous cells gradually affect other organs of the body too. The membrane usually gets affected by cancer due to exposure to asbestos, a naturally occurring group of minerals, mined from underground and used for insulation. written by Muna wa Wanjiru
