Important note on this diagnosis — This text offers a psychological interpretation. With a cancer or tumour diagnosis, medical treatment belongs in the hands of physicians. BodySignal accompanies you in understanding the inner side of your symptom and complements medical care.
Your Body Is Speaking
In the bone marrow — the deepest, most hidden tissue of your body — cells that normally belong to your immune defence begin to multiply without restraint. Plasma cells, which ordinarily produce antibodies, become malignant and spread. They displace healthy blood formation, dissolve bone substance, attack the kidneys. The scaffold that carries you is hollowed out from within.
Medically, multiple myeloma is a malignant disease of the blood-forming system. Viewed from a psychosomatic perspective, a deeper question arises: What is happening in the innermost structure of your life, such that your body dissolves its own foundation? Why do the cells that are meant to protect you attack what holds you together?
Multiple myeloma does not affect the surface. It affects the scaffold. The base. The core. And it is exactly there that it wants to be heard.
