diagnosed with mesothelioma

Mesothelioma cancer may create pain in various body parts. The pain becomes stronger as the cancer advances. Pleural mesothelioma (cancer in the lining of the lungs) frequently causes pain in the chest. Moreover, the individual might have difficulty breathing. The shortness of breath might increase as the cancer advances and causes pleural effusion (retention of fluid in the lining of the lungs). Persistent abdominal pain might be an indication of peritoneal mesothelioma (cancer in the lining of the gut).
