Hypercalcemia
Too much calcium can build up in parts of the body due to multiple myeloma. As such, hypercalcemia may be a symptom of the disease. The disease damages the bones, leading to high calcium levels in the blood. The human body is indispensable for naturally occurring minerals like calcium. It is crucial not just for the strength of the bones but also for the proper functioning of the nerves and muscles. But what occurs when there may be excessive calcium within the human physique?
Since this element plays an important role in many physiological processes, the excess of calcium in blood plasma or hypercalcemia can lead to many disease symptoms and health complications. That extra calcium in their blood makes patients feel more fatigued. One may feel nauseated, vomit and a variety of other unpleasant symptoms may follow. Too much calcium makes one thirsty and requires urination. You may also experience irregular heartbeat and headaches.
Blood tests may indicate if there is too much calcium. So, the disease would be an indication for testing for multiple myeloma. Over time, if hypercalcemia is left untreated, there is a risk of damage to the kidneys, such as the formation of kidney stones.
