Multiple Myeloma
Cardiovascular System: consists of the heart, blood vessels, and the approximately 5 liters of blood that the blood vessels transport. Responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and cellular waste products throughout the body, the cardiovascular system is powered by the body’s hardest-working organ — the heart, which is only about the size of a closed fist. Even at rest, the average heart easily pumps over 5 liters of blood throughout the body every minute. Multiple Myeloma affects the Cardiovascular System because it affects the blood- the plasma.

Etiology: The cause is not really known, but doctors know that myeloma begins with one abnormal plasma cell in your bone marrow — the soft, blood-producing tissue that fills in the center of most of your bones. Then the abnormal cell multiplies rapidly.
