Thanks for the helpful post. It is also my opinion that mesothelioma has an very long latency period of time, which means that warning signs of the disease might not exactly emerge until 30 to 50 years after the original exposure to asbestos fiber. Pleural mesothelioma, that is the most common style and has an effect on the area throughout the lungs, may cause shortness of breath, torso pains, and also a persistent cough, which may bring about coughing up our blood.
