Data on 524 firefighters who were exposed to smoke at Grenfell in 2017 showed 136 reported life-changing health conditions three years later.
These included 11 cancer cases, 64 respiratory diseases, 22 neurological disorders and 66 digestive illnesses.
Health Minister Andrew Gwynne was asked on LBC about the Fire Brigade Union's call for regular health checks for the firefighters and said he would speak to Home Office Fire Minister, Diana Johnson.
He said: "Certainly that's something that I'm more than happy to take away and look at seriously."
