Mesothelioma: Signs and Symptoms

Occupational medicine specialist Dr. Jacqueline Moline shares that for most people who have mesothelioma the biggest sign is shortness of breath, but it’s gradual. They may have pains when they take deep breaths, and or have a persistent cough. If you are experiencing any of those symptoms it could be a sign of mesothelioma or another type of lung cancer. Trial lawyer Mark Lanier shares that you should check the ingredients of products before you purchase them and if you see talc or talcum powder you should stay away.

My Dad worked for DuPont chemical...he got it there and our Mom got it from washing his clothes. My Dad died of a strange lung cancer. They had never seen such. It was red and inflamed like it was angry. My Dad was given 9 months then six weeks and passed in 3. I cringe at the announcements, talk , etc. about it.
