What Are The Symptoms Of Multiple Myeloma?

Multiple myeloma is a malignancy that begins in plasma cells, a certain type of white blood cell. Antibodies that recognize and kill germs in the body are produced by plasma cells to help the body fight off infection. Cancerous cells accumulate in the bone marrow and crowd out other healthy cells as a result of multiple myeloma. Cancerous plasma cells do not produce regular antibodies but produce abnormal proteins that do not work correctly. Almost all cases of multiple myeloma begin as monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance.
