The symptoms of mesothelioma may include any of the following:
- breathlessness
- chest wall pain which feels heavy and dull or aching
- weight loss
- fever
- sweating (especially at night)
- hoarseness – this happens when there is pressure on the nerve that supplies the voice box
- a cough that doesn’t go away
- abdominal pain and swelling (peritoneal mesothelioma).
These symptoms can be caused by conditions other than cancer, but you should always have them checked out by your doctor, particularly if they don’t go away after a couple of weeks.
