Question 5 – What is multiple myeloma?

Answer – It is a type of blood cancer. Multiple Myeloma is also known as Kahler’s Decease. Our bodies produce white blood cells. Plasma Cell is a type of white blood cell. It makes antibodies that fight infection present in our body.

In the case of multiple myeloma, these cells multiply the wrong way. When they multiply the wrong way they release too much protein in blood and bones. This protein is called immunoglobulin. Too much immunoglobulin is harmful. It builds up throughout our body and damages the organs.

These plasma cells push out blood cells from the bones of our body. They also generate chemicals that damage our bones. The bones become weak.

When Multiple Myeloma gets worse, the plasma cells come out of bone marrow and spread inside the body. This causes organ damage.
