I have never heard of Mesothelioma until I kept seeing it being mentioned in a few blogs. Initially I thought it was some kind of a historical or mythical place, something like Mesopotamia . Jokes aside though, Mesothelioma is actually lung cancer caused by constant exposure to Asbestos . Asbestos can be found in lots of materials used in shipyards, construction (roofing and flooring), automotive, even in refineries and textiles industry.
Asbestos if intact is not harmful, but it is lethal when it's damaged and the fibers become airborne. Those involved in the demolition industry are highly at risk. Once inhaled, Asbestos fibers cannot be expelled and then inflammation occurs. If you have worked in the sectors mentioned above, I suggest you get yourself a proper check up just to be on the safe side.
You should seek diagnosis from pulmonologists (lung specialists) or oncologists (cancer specialists). Gosh, all these 'ologist' words are making me dizzy... LOL! I never knew there could be so many words that involve the words 'ologists' in them .
Alright, back to being serious. If you are diagnosed with Mesothelioma, be informed that you are entitled to compensation. Get yourself a lawyer, not just any lawyer but experienced and aggressive Mesothelioma Lawyers whom are skilled in assisting victims of Asbestos exposure.
LOL! For a moment there I thought you were going to talk about flashers!
ReplyDeleteYes, we should stay away from asbestos at all cost ...

ReplyDeleteI have never heard of it myself until two years ago when my dad became ill with it. He struggled for 2 years before it took his life.He was 83...so to him he lived a very good life.
ReplyDeleteThe compensation program has been awesome towards my mom. They have her basically set up for life.
My father became infected with it when he was 18 years of age while working at a shipyard part time. It never affected him until he was 81. It is a very tricky cancer.
Hahahaha Let the battle begin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOn your mark! Get set! Dooooooooo nothing!!!!!!! Hahahaha
