What is Mesothelioma?

Mesothelioma is a cancer of the mesothelial membrane, a protective lining that surrounds most of the body’s internal organs. Symptoms associated with mesothelioma include:

• Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
• Pain or swelling in the Abdominal region
• Problems with blood clotting
• Obstruction of the bowel
• Chest pain
• Night sweats
• Weight loss
• Fever
• Anemia

While mesothelioma is rare, it is most often linked with exposure to asbestos. In almost all mesothelioma cases, a connection to asbestos exposure is involved. After WWII, asbestos was used in different industrial products such as:

• Textiles
• Insulation
• Floor products
• Brake linings
• Cement
• Roof shingles

If you worked with any of these materials, consulting an attorney is an important step to take now. Since mesothelioma can lie dormant up 30 to 50 years after exposure, it is important you consult a lawyer at Cooney & Conway to learn more about your legal options.
