Asbestos mainly affects the lungs and the membrane that surrounds the lungs.

K so before I was born my mom smoked for about 40 years. Would that make my lungs weaker and make me more of a risk to get lung cancer?

Chemistry Nerd asked:


I’m doing some research and have heard that it’s common for mesothelioma, in more advanced stages, to metastasize to the lungs. What symptoms does this cause for the patient?

Thank you in advance.
Whoops, I meant lymph nodes, not lungs. And I am aware what metastasis means, I’m just wondering what metastasis particularly to the lymph nodes would cause.

Just found out that not all asbestosis is cancerus. I can’t find anything on non-cancerus mesothelial hyperplasia of the lungs. All my rearches turn up malignant mesothelioma. Whats up????
Whats the treatment? Is there treatment? My MD refused to talk to me about it. I only found out by reading my lung biopsy pathology report. My specialist quit me before I could ask for treatment. Go figure? “At least do no harm”? right
Please don’t tell me to ask a MD. That is like Duuuu!! Keep in mind I live in USA, not Canada, so finding a specialist in this field who is about helping vs ego & statis is VERY difficult. And I’m also working class & a person of color , so finding a specialist who will even glance my way is like finding a needle in a haystack.

I’m not sure since Pearl is for lung cancer and things pertaining to the lungs. Peritoneal Mesothelioma is dealing with the abdomen area. If it’s not the same, does anyone know the color for it?
