Multiple Myeloma

Multiple Myeloma in 9/11 Survivors

Multiple myeloma is one of the most common 9/11 cancers diagnosed among 9/11 first responders and people who lived and worked in Downtown Manhattan during the months after the terrorist attacks.

If you have been diagnosed with this illness, or any other cancer of condition that you suspect may be related to the 9/11 toxins, registering a claim is the first step in getting the Victim Compensation Fund payouts you deserve.

Our firm secured $1.3 million for a Downtown Manhattan Security Director who was totally disabled by 9/11 multiple myeloma.

VCF Case Results

Toxic 9/11 Dust Exposure and Multiple Myeloma

The toxic fallout from the September 11th attacks on the Twin Towers affected 90,000 first responders, 57,000 residents, 300,000 Downtown workers, and 18,000 students. Our Zadroga Act lawyers have handled many multiple myeloma 9/11 claims.

The Victim Compensation Fund (VCF) and the WTC Health Program makes it possible for first responders and others who lived or worked in Downtown Manhattan to get free lifetime health care and compensation for any illnesses (including over 70 types of cancer) caused by being at or near Ground Zero. We have helped secure compensation for 9/11 cancer victims for many years.

Multiple Myeloma conditions

Multiple myeloma is a type of blood cancer formed by malignant plasma cells that develop in bone marrow. As a result, this cancer can result in broken bones (fractures) from only minor stress or injury.

While pain can result in any bone, multiple myeloma most often manifests itself in the back, hips, and skull. It can also result in low red and white cell blood counts, which can produce fatigue and infections.
