Am I an appropriate candidate for this treatment, in view of the extent of my mesothelioma, my age, and my overall medical and physical condition? What is the probability that I will be cured by this treatment? Have you had other patients who have received this treatment and have been cured? If you cannot tell me that I will be cured by the treatment, are there still good reasons for me to have the treatment? What are those reasons? How will the treatment affect the quality of my remaining life? How long will the treatment last? Will the treatment itself make me feel sick? What are the side effects of the treatment? When will the side effects of the treatment start to disappear? What are the other known risks of the treatment? How much will the treatment cost? Where do I go to obtain the treatment?
