The risk of mesothelioma related disease grows with the amount of fibers inhaled, and by the amount of time and years exposed.
The earlier you or your loved one is diagnosed with mesothelioma, the better the chances are that they can be treated.
Mesothelioma has a greater number of treatment options including chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, experimental therapies and drugs, complementary medicine and therapies, and lifestyle modifications.
Advance stages of Mesothelioma, Lung Cancer, and Asbestosis are virtually untreatable. If you have experienced asbestos exposure for long periods of time but do not have any signs of mesothelioma yet, it is a good idea to see your doctor since the latency period for signs of disease after asbestos exposure is 20-40 years.
