What are common symptoms of mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma symptoms typically do not develop until decades after initial asbestos exposure. Additionally, many mesothelioma symptoms are similar to less serious conditions. However, if you experience any of the symptoms listed below, see a doctor immediately: • shortness of breath • unusual weight loss • chest pain, especially after exertion • bowel obstruction • abdominal pain • anemia (unusual fatigue and listlessness) • abnormal blood clotting or excessive bleeding If the cancer has spread, you may also feel neck or facial pain and trouble swallowing.
In this video a medical doctor explains types of mesothelioma. In the full DVD (mesodvd.com), he explains mesothelioma stages, mesothelioma types, mesothelioma symptoms, and mesothelioma diagnosis.
