The doctor who began your evaluation for cancer will generally be the one responsible to provide the diagnosis. This could be your primary care provider. Those persons who were referred to an oncologist will probably receive their diagnosis from that specialist. The doctor that delivers the diagnosis message should inform you about the certainty of the pathologist regarding your biopsy. Ask for all the information that is available. The best doctors will share any doubts.

Mesothelioma Day: the September 26th Resolution
Mesothelimoa Day — September 26, 2010
This year, MesoRFA produced a resolution for the nation and officially launched a campaign to raise national public awareness about mesothelioma cancer and the need of more financial support to fund the research for a cure. There is so much more research to be completed and comparatively little support from the Government specifically for treatments and a cure to mesothelioma. There just is not enough public awareness to get the Government’s focus on this issue.
Let us show you the numbers that highlight the urgent need to raise more money for mesothelioma research, which is the sole purpose of the Mesothelioma Research Foundation of America.
Join with us to help make your city government aware of Mesothelioma with its declaration in support of this special day. You can facilitate this movement and make September 26, 2011 the greatest awareness day. Here’s how: MesoRFA Resolution for Mesothelioma Awareness Day
What is Mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is a cancerous tumor that comes from the cells of the mesothelium. The mesothelium is a thin protective lining that covers many of the body’s internal organs, including the lungs. The mesothelium has two layers with fluid producing mesothelial cells between these layers. The fluid has a lubricating effect that allows moving organs like the heart and lungs to slide and move easily among other internal body parts with little friction.
