Living with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma? Find Out if PCBs are to Blame.
The most recent, reliable medical research shows that high levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) can cause non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Unfortunately, although production of PCBs was banned by the Environmental Protection Agency in 1979, these toxic, cancer-causing chemicals are still present in our environment, our food, and our bodies today.
If you or someone you love is suffering from non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, we can help you determine whether your cancer was caused by exposure to PCBs. If these toxic chemicals resulted in your illness, we can help you fight for compensation from their manufacturer, a company called Monsanto.
Have I Been Exposed to PCBs?
Monsanto began manufacturing PCB’s in the 1930′s and continued for over 40 years, despite compelling scientific evidence of PCB’s dangers. According to Monsanto’s own research, PCB contamination of the environment was “substantial, widespread, and alarming.”
In fact, virtually every person alive today has some amount of PCBs in their bodies. PCBs can pass from mother to child during pregnancy or later, through breast milk. You can also ingest PCBs by eating animal products such as:
- Fish
- Poultry
- Eggs
- Dairy
- Meat
PCBs break down very slowly. Once PCBs enter your body, they can stay there for decades. In general, the longer you live, the more PCBs build up in your system.
How Can I Find Out if PCBs Caused My Cancer?
If you are living with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and want to determine if your cancer was caused by PCBs, we can help. Don’t worry – you won’t need to fly across the country or spend your hard-earned money; we take care of everything.
All you have to do is start by contacting us at 800-401-7497 or through our online contact form. We may need to ask you a few questions and get some basic information about your health. Next, we will arrange for a medic to come directly to your house and draw a few blood samples. These samples will be tested and analyzed by some of the most reputable labs in the country (at our expense, not yours). This process does take time, so it may take a few months for us to get the results.
Once the results are in, we will inform you of the outcome. If it turns out that PCBs are a cause of your cancer, we can help you explore your legal options and give you advice on what to do next.
Who are We and Why do We Want to Help?
We’ve helped hundreds of people across the country stand up to the companies that exposed them to toxic chemicals like PCBs – and we want to help you, too.
When we discovered that PCBs can cause non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, we knew something had to be done. We also knew, however, that a rich, powerful company like Monsanto would not agree to compensate PCB victims without a fight. We decided to combine our experience and our resources to take on Monsanto and hold them responsible for releasing toxic PCBs into the environment.
