Texas Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Lawyers
There are two general types of lymphoma that are recognized: Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (also called as Hodgkin’s disease) and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Lymphoma is a cancer involving a malignant tumor originating in a lymph node. Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma may have many causes, and the particular circumstances that can cause this cancer to occur are not fully known. However, benzene exposure is one such possible cause.
If you work or worked in a field that dealt with benzene, such as at a chemical plant, oil refinery, rubber or plastic manufacturing plant, or printer, you may have been the victim of benzene exposure. If you were diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma this may have been caused because of your workplace. There are also other forms of benzene exposure that may occur depending on where you live and work (even if you don’t work at a factory or plant). It is important that you consult a benzene exposure attorney to find out what your legal options are at this point. You may be eligible to recover financial compensation and an attorney can help determine this.
Some of the symptoms of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma may include: fever, red or itchy patches on the skin, loss of appetite, weight loss and fatigue. The lymph nodes in the neck, underarms and groin may swell as well, but will not be painful. Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma may affect a patient in varying degrees depending on how aggressive the cancer is.
