March is Myeloma Awareness Month. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is at the forefront of the fight against myeloma. We’ve seen significant progress over the past decade, with new therapies resulting in better overall survival.
Multiple myeloma, also known as myeloma, is a type of bone marrow cancer. Bone marrow is the spongy tissue at the centre of some bones that produces the body’s blood cells. It’s called multiple myeloma as the cancer often affects several areas of the body, such as the spine, skull, pelvis and ribs.
