Diagnosis of mesothelioma:
For diagnosis of mesothelioma conventional X-rays is done and if some abnormalities are found in the dog's pleural area then a CT scan or ultrasound is done. Fluids around the lung, urinalysis, blood count and a biochemical tests are done. Biopsy is also done and in this a piece of the tissue from the pleural area is removed and examined.

  47. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
