Thanks a lot for the helpful post. It is also my belief that mesothelioma cancer has an really long latency period, which means that signs of the disease would possibly not emerge right up until 30 to 50 years after the first exposure to asbestos fiber.  Pleural mesothelioma, which is the most common kind and affects the area throughout the lungs, could cause shortness of breath, chest pains, and also a persistent coughing, which may result in coughing up blood vessels.
