Welcome to MesoAuthority.com – Your Source for Information on a Mesothelioma Lawsuit and Asbestos Exposure

Thousands of our country’s most dedicated workers and bravest veterans have been affected by Mesothelioma in the past several decades after exposure to asbestos. Many of these people and their families, still in shock by the sudden onset of the disease, don’t even know their legal rights or that help is available for free.

Mesothelioma is a very rare type of cancer that attacks the lining of the body’s organs in the chest, lungs, heart or abdomen. Although it can take 20 years or more to surface, unfortunately it spreads quickly and has no known cure. The best weapon against the disease is early detection.

Mesothelioma has been linked primarily to exposure to asbestos particles. Although banned in most applications today, asbestos was used in thousands of products, industrial applications and construction projects during the middle of the twentieth century. Companies that used or produced asbestos during this time are still liable for the injuries or death it caused. One of our Texas Mesothelioma Lawyers can provide you with the legal advice needed to pursue a case. Contact us today.

Symptoms and Diagnosis

In addition to impairing lung function, asbestosis can increase your risk of a rare cancer of the lining of the lung called mesothelioma.

Mesothelioma may develop 20 to 40 years after exposure to asbestos fibers and can occur even if you were exposed only for 1 or 2 years or less. Some people with mesothelioma have no history of exposure to asbestos.

Signs and symptoms include significant chest pain, shortness of breath and weight loss. In about half of those with mesothelioma, the disease spreads, producing tumors in other parts of the body. In other cases, the tumors are limited to the chest. Accumulation of fluid between the two layers of the pleural membrane (pleural effusion) often contributes to shortness of breath and chest pain.

The chance of recovery depends on the size and location of the cancer, whether and how far it has spread and how it responds to treatment. Mesothelioma is usually treated with surgery to remove the cancer, radiation therapy, chemotherapy or some combination of these therapies.
