Can you live a normal life with asbestosis?

A patient’s lifespan and quality of living depend on how advanced the disease is. Asbestos causes irreversible effects, but constant treatment can mitigate the symptoms and improve a patient day-to-day living. Patients must visit their healthcare providers regularly and let them know if the condition worsens. X-ray tests and lung function tests might be required at regular intervals.

Asbestosis patients who smoke should give up this habit to improve their quality of life.

We wanted a resource where people who are looking for better help can find it, because one of the issues that I have found is that the diagnosis takes a little bit, some people don’t know if they are diagnosed or not. This is something that it is important enough, that is why I wanted to put the information together.
