Symptoms of Mesothelioma or Asbestos Lung Cancer

Exposure to asbestos has been linked to an increased risk of mesothelioma cancer and asbestos lung cancer. 

Some of the most common symptoms of these diseases include: 

  • Breathing problems 
  • Chest pain 
  • Coughing 
  • Shortness of breath 
  • Tiredness or fatigue 
  • Weight loss 

If you or a loved one worked at a job where you were exposed to asbestos and have experienced these or other symptoms of an asbestos-related illness, your symptoms may be caused by mesothelioma or lung cancer. 

Jobs With Asbestos Exposure

Before it was banned in the 1970s, asbestos was commonly used in machine parts, insulation, protective equipment, and other materials that were found in thousands of jobs across the United States. 

Some of the jobs where asbestos exposure was most common include: 

  • Boilermakers and boiler workers  
  • Carpenters        
  • Construction workers       
  • Demolition workers        
  • Factory workers        
  • Laborers        
  • Pipe coverers and pipefitters        
  • Plumbers        
  • Shipyard and dock workers       
  • U.S. Navy veterans   

Workers who were employed at these or other jobs where exposure to asbestos was common and who are diagnosed with mesothelioma cancer or asbestos lung cancer may be eligible to file a lawsuit or an asbestos trust claim. 

Compensation for Victims of Asbestos Exposure

Workers who were exposed to asbestos before 1982 and diagnosed with mesothelioma or asbestos lung cancer may be eligible to receive compensation for their illness. 

The spouses and adult children of asbestos workers may also qualify for compensation, either for the death of a loved one, or because they themselves have become ill due to asbestos. 

Thousands of asbestos lawsuits have been filed by workers and their families against companies that manufacturers or sold products that contained asbestos. 

Victims of asbestos exposure may also be eligible to receive a settlement through one of the asbestos bankruptcy trust funds that were established to compensate individuals who were exposed to asbestos products from companies that are no longer in business.
