What’s Hot Now in Medicine

Ok…let’s talk about other Mesothelioma’s symptoms

3 Night sweats
It doesn’t mean you sweat during nite

“Infections, malignancy and other diseases can also cause night sweats. When night sweats are due to an infection, the sweating usually occurs as the body temperature drops suddenly after running a fever.”
Yep..mesothelioma causes infection and thus..it causes nite sweat

4 Lethargy
You feel lack of energy, drowsiness and sleepy.

5 Weight loss due to anorexia
Anorexia..it means you hate eating. You lose appetite.
Patients with life-threatening illnesses often lose their appetite

6 Hoarseness
You’ll have husky voice..it’s because mesothelioma invades the lymphatics of the neck.
If the cancer metastasizes (spreads) from the
mesothelium to other parts of the body, symptoms may include pain, trouble swallowing, or swelling of the face and neck.

7 Coughing up blood

Yep..blood comes out from your mouth
As mesothelioma tumors grow into the chest wall,
pleura and the lymphatic system,
erosion of the blood vessels occurs, allowing blood to enter the
bronchial tubes and into the sputum.

ok..see you soon ..
