Abstract

Leukaemia, lymphoma, and myeloma are among the serious and frequently fatal conditions that impact thousands of people each year. Genetics, environmental factors, and medical problems can all affect the risk of developing blood cancer, however, the precise causes are still not entirely known. Fatigue, unexpected weight loss, and frequent infections are examples of common blood cancer symptoms. In the course of the diagnosis process, blood tests, imaging tests, and bone marrow biopsies are frequently combined. Blood cancer therapies include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, stem cell transplant, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Supportive care is also important for managing symptoms and improving quality of life. Ongoing research is exploring new treatments and therapies for blood cancer, as well as ways to improve supportive care and personalize treatment plans. Blood cancer patients and their families have severe emotional and psychological effects that must not be ignored. For improving outcomes and raising the general standard of living for people affected by this condition, it is essential to address these needs.

Keywords: Blood cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, genetics, environmental factors, medical conditions, symptoms, diagnosis, staging, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, stem cell transplant, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, supportive care, research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, emotional impact, psychological impact.
