The symptoms of mesothelioma vary depending upon where in the body it appears. If you have inhaled asbestos fibers, you are most likely to be diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma, which affects the lungs. The symptoms include coughing, wheezing, difficulty breathing and chest pain.
If you ingested asbestos dust or fibers then you are more likely to be diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma, which affects the abdomen. The symptoms include nausea, vomiting, unexplained weight loss, loss of appetite, and pain in the abdomen. Contact us for more information.
