Massachusetts Mesothelioma Lawyer

Mesothelioma is an aggressive and inoperable form of asbestos cancer that affects close to 3,000 Americans every year – hard-working people who contracted this tragic condition through no fault of their own. Due to its long latency period, symptoms of mesothelioma typically do not appear for up to 55-years from the first exposure to asbestos. Unfortunately, there is no known cure; only palliative treatments to ease the pain and suffering are available.

What are the symptoms of mesothelioma?

• Chest wall pain
• Pleural effusion or fluid surrounding the lung
• Shortness of breath
• Fatigue or anemia
• Wheezing, hoarseness or cough
• Coughing up blood

What should you do if you think you have a case of mesothelioma?

While at the moment there is no known cure, there are steps you can take to minimize associated pain and discomfort – the first is to be seen by an experienced oncologist who is familiar with mesothelioma cases.
