Can Develop MM From High Doses Exposure (12 Hours A Day For 10 Days) To Benzene? Diagnosed 14 Months Later With MM.
That's an interesting question, Ron! I blame my MM on early and intense exposure to radiation. I'm sure any intense chemical exposure can cause many different kinds of cancer. It would be interesting to do a search in a medical library. You should be able to find articles in a library database, just be sure they are "peer reviewed" articles. Any wing nut can put a theory out there or publish an article that has not been fact checked, so check to make sure the article is from a medical journal that is peer reviewed. That means other professionals have looked at the article, read the research, and fact checked for accuracy. If you have access to a local library, any librarian can show you how to access a database with peer reviewed articles. Good luck!
Thanks. Sorry Iām delayed response.
Exposure to benzene is considered a risk factor for developing multiple myeloma (MM). People who work with benzene are more than twice as likely to develop this cancer than the general population. However, the context does not provide specific information about the exact duration and intensity of exposure required to read more
