  8. Thanks for your valuable post. Through the years, I have come to understand that the symptoms of mesothelioma cancer are caused by the build up of fluid regarding the lining on the lung and the chest muscles cavity. The condition may start inside chest place and get distributed to other body parts. Other symptoms of pleural mesothelioma include fat reduction, severe respiration trouble, nausea, difficulty eating, and puffiness of the neck and face areas. It ought to be noted that some people living with the disease don’t experience any kind of serious signs at all.
