Multiple Myeloma Symptoms can be confused with other problems such as osteoporosis, arthritis or even chronic back pain. It is an insidious form of cancer, which, because of the way that the plasma cells in the bone marrow are involved, the cancer can spread easily throughout the body. The pain associated with multiple myeloma is extreme and requires very strong pain relief. Anemia and fatigue are also common since the production of blood cells is disrupted and the reduced production of platelets results in excessive bleeding.
Diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma involves detection of abnormal proteins in the blood and urine. X-rays can also show up areas of damage to the bone in various parts of the skeleton. Bone marrow biopsies can detect the change in numbers of plasma cells.

Unfortunately they also come with a wide range of incapacitating side effects – which often make the patient feel worse rather than better.
It would be great if, rather than having to treat existing cancers, they could be prevented in the first place. Eating natural, whole foods, keeping fit and avoiding contact with toxic chemicals and harmful pollutants would take us a long way towards achieving a reduction in the incidence of cancer.

There are two forms of test – a blood test and a physical examination via a gastroscopy/ colonoscopy to examine the intestinal wall.
