It is critical to be open and honest with your physician. Despite this, many patients are afraid that a medical provider will view them as a complainer and decide not to disclose accurate details about their health, which in turn results in the patient receiving inadequate care. Instead, if you notice any signs or symptoms of mesothelioma, promptly notify your medical provider; mesothelioma is an aggressive and quick moving disease.
The Throneberry Law Group focuses on providing compassionate legal representation to mesothelioma victims and their loved ones during this emotionally and often financially difficult time. We also support clients who advocate for their own care. Behind our approach is a principal attorney who experienced the loss of his father-in-law to mesothelioma and understands just how devastating the condition can be.
Talking About Pain and its Impact on Your LifeIt is critical to perform an accurate assessment of pain caused by malignant mesothelioma to determine the most appropriate treatment options. Because pain sometimes does not present with visual symptoms, it is critical for a patient to speak up throughout the treatment process. Some of the details about pain associated with mesothelioma and its management o discuss with your health care provider include the following:
Chronic pain can be debilitating. Do not be quiet about it. Bring a list of symptoms associated with your pain as well as your concerns when you meet with your physician. If you feel that you are unable to express yourself, you can also bring a family member or friend who can take notes during conversations with your doctor. You should never feel uncomfortable or afraid to tell your physician about your symptoms or ask questions about your treatment options.

While these might be uncomfortable issues to discuss, the only way to prepare for what is to come is to learn as much as you can. Some of the important questions that you should ask your physician include the following:
