What Should I Do?

What Should I do?

It is important to recognize the symptoms of benzene exposure so you can contact your doctor if necessary.  If you or someone you know has potentially been exposed to benzene or other toxic organic solvents and are experiencing symptoms, you should contact your doctor immediately.  It is important to understand the signs and symptoms of cancer.  Benzene exposure can result in the following symptoms:

Abdominal pain or "fullness"
Abnormal bleeding
Bone or joint pain
Enlarged spleen, lymph nodes, and liver
Excessive bruising
Fatigue
Fever
Infection
Malaise (vague feeling of bodily discomfort)
Reduced tolerance for exercise
Weight loss

These symptoms are also often associated with the flu or other common diseases, so they don't necessarily mean you have cancer.  You may have some of these signs and symptoms but not all of them.  A sign is something the doctor can see or measure, like a high temperature.  A symptom is something only you can feel like pain.  In the early stages of a disease you may not experience any signs or symptoms.

What should I do about treatment?

See our treatment page and consult your doctor.  You may also want to get a second opinion on both your diagnosis and your treatment plan.

Legal Options

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms and believe you have been exposed to benzene, you should consult with your doctor and inform him/her of your possible benzene exposure.
