Multiple Myeloma

Multiple myeloma is cancer that begins in plasma cells, a type of white blood cell. Plasma cells are white blood cells that make antibodies. Antibodies are part of the immune system. They work with other parts of the immune system to help protect the body from germs and other harmful substances. [Source: www.cancer.gov]
