As we know that, one day all of us are going to pass away. This is a worldwide truth. Obviously we people are ready for it. But why should we die a untimely death? and furthermore when we are not responsible for the reason of the death. For someone else’s benefit, a particular section of the society becomes victim of some noxious diseases.
Mesothelioma is a rare and deadly form of cancer that affects the coating of the lung, coating of the abdominal cavity or the coating around the heart. It is caused by the exposure to asbestos and occurs in those who have breathed in asbestos fibres. Mesothelioma may not show until 25 to 50 years after the contact with asbestos which is why it was widely used in various industries for many years without anyone realising the damage it was doing to the health of the people working with it. It is predictable that by 2030, near about 300,000 workers in Western Europe unaccompanied will have died from Mesothelioma.
The primary symptom of Mesothelioma is shortness of breath; sufferers may also be affected by a persistent and productive cough, chest tightness, chest pain, loss of appetite and a crackling sound in the lungs when inhaling. Chest X-rays are the most common method of detecting this disease but other techniques can be used such as pulmonary function tests, Biopsy/Bronchoscopy and CT scans. The treatment for Mesothelioma depends on the location of the cancer, how developed it is and the patient's age and general health. Treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
Caring a Mesothelioma patient is very sturdy. Caring here doesn’t simply mean physical care. A Mesothelioma patient has to be given equal psychological and arousing support to fight with the circumstances. Most of the time it has been observed that the patient completely loses faith in life. One thing you know very well, some thing is difficult to do, it does not mean you should not try, you should try just harder.
