Mesothelioma Symptoms
|
Mesothelioma symptoms may not manifest themselves
for twenty to forty years after exposure to asbestos
fibers. The disease begins with the inhalation
or swallowing of the fibers and their subsequent
migration to vulnerable areas of the body.
Symptoms include, pain from fluid build up in the
pleura (lining of the lungs), shortness of breath,
abdominal pain, abdominal swelling, bowel
obstruction, anemia, fever, trouble swallowing and
neck or face swelling.
Mesothelioma symptoms are similar to other less
severe diseases and the diagnosis of Mesothelioma
includes an analysis of the patient's history with
asbestos, a CAT scan or MRI and eventual biopsy of the
suspect tissues.
Mesothelioma is rare and only a doctor can diagnose
it. Most times other, less serious, conditions
are producing the symptoms above.
