What is Lymphoma Cancer?
Lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the lymphatic system, which includes the lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow, and thymus gland. Lymphoma cancer can also affect vital organs in advanced stages. There are multiple types of lymphoma including Hodgkin’s lymphoma, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, cutaneous b-cell lymphoma, cutaneous t-cell lymphoma, and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. The different types of lymphoma cancer can cause many symptoms, such as weight loss, shortness of breath, night sweats, fever, fatigue, swelling of lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, or groin. Lymphoma can occur in people of all ages; however, males are more likely to be affected. Like all types of cancer, the earlier it is diagnosed, the higher the chance of effective treatment and survival. If your condition is not diagnosed or misdiagnosed, you will not receive the specialized treatment you need to ensure your survival.
Medical Negligence
Were you a victim of medical negligence? Did your doctor fail to treat you with skill, diligence, and care? Doctors and all medical professionals have a duty to their patients. They must do everything within their reach to treat their patients. When a patient seeks medical attention, they do so with the intention of finding the reason behind their symptoms. Even if they are concerned about their overall health, patients that are told that they are in excellent health will stop worrying and no longer be concerned—because doctors and all medical professionals are trusted. When a doctor fails to perform screenings and other tests to identify abnormalities in the patient, they negligently prolong the time the patient is without treatment.
Negligence consists of four elements: duty, breach, cause, and harm. When doctors and medical professionals fail to run tests and identify any conditions that are creating the symptoms, they are breaching their duty of care. This breach of duty causes patients to fail to receive prompt treatment, subsequently harming patients by allowing their condition to worsen. Medical negligence is medical malpractice, and it can cause the death of those with a lymphoma cancer misdiagnosis. If your loved one lost his or her life because of the negligence of a doctor, you might have grounds to sue the doctor for wrongful death. For more information about medical negligence and suing the doctor or hospital, you must immediately contact our law firm.
Compensation
What type of compensation are you eligible to receive if you file a claim? If you file a claim for the failure to detect lymphoma cancer, you might be able to receive different categories of compensation. The different categories of compensation are listed below:
- Medical expenses
- Lost income
- Funeral and burial costs
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of consortium
- Punitive damages
Before you assume that you will be eligible to receive every type of compensation listed above, you should immediately speak to a lymphoma cancer misdiagnosis lawyer. An experienced lymphoma cancer attorney will be able to explain the compensation you will be eligible to receive based on the details of your claim. Do not hesitate to contact our attorneys for information about the type and amount of compensation that you might be eligible to receive.

When cancer is diagnosed in early stages, those patients have the opportunity to receive life-saving treatment. All cancers, including lymphoma cancer, must be treated in early stages to increase the likelihood of survival. If there is a delay in diagnosing lymphoma cancer, treatment is less likely to be efficient. If you were misdiagnosed or were affected by a delay in diagnosis, you might have grounds to file a medical malpractice lawsuit for not detecting lymphoma cancer.
