Overview
Most blood cancers start in the bone marrow, in which the normal blood cell development process is interrupted by uncontrolled growth of an abnormal type of blood cell. Blood cancers affect the production and function of your blood cells; they also prevent your immune system from fighting off infections or preventing serious bleeding.
Types of Blood Cancer:
- Lymphoma: It occurs in lymph reticular system – lymph nodes
- Myeloma: This is a cancer of the white blood cells, also called plasma cells.
