To finish off Multiple Myeloma Awareness Month, we have our second episode of a two part series- this one's on Myeloma! We discuss the definitions of smoldering myeloma vs. multiple myeloma as well as a breakdown of the pathophysiology (with our mnemonic CRAB) and a brief overview of treatment. Make sure to listen to our episode on MGUS first. 

As always, we have an associated infographic as well as relevant resources at www.theinternatwork.com.

This episode was written by Dr. Zahra Merali (Internal Medicine Resident) and reviewed by Dr. Laura Habib (Malignant Hematology Fellow), Dr. Mohammed Aljama (Malignant Hematologist) and Dr. Rajendar Hanmiah (General Internist). Infographic by Nikhita Singhal.
