How Serious Is Multiple Myeloma Cancer With Passing Of Blood?
My father has just started to find out that he has multiple myeloma cancer. He had a bone marrow sample taken yesterday to find out the extent, but last night he started passing a lot of blood. My family took him to the hospital and he is in need of blood this morning. Is passing blood a symptom of the multiple myeloma diagnosis? I live out of state and am curious on how serious this is... Any advise? ~son

hi.
it is best if you bring your father to the nearest hospital or ER if he is passing out blood. his blood count might be dropping if this happens frequently. also, a consultation with a medical oncologist is best for further evaluation and management of his condition.
hope this helps.
good day!!
