In early stages of the disease, mesothelioma may not have any visible symptoms and is very hard to detect. In later stages of development, certain symptoms begin to develop and are usually caused by the growth of cancer and its pressure on certain nerves.
The symptoms of the two main types of mesothelioma (Pleural and Peritoneal) are described below:
Peritoneal Mesothelioma:
Abdominal pain (stomach)
Abdomen swelling
Feeling sick
Loss of appetite
Losing over 10% of your body weight while not dieting

Pleural Mesothelioma:
Lower back of chest pain
Continual Cough
