Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by the overproduction of plasma cells.
Bone marrow fibroblasts, as well as myeloma cells, produce interleukin-6 (IL-6) which stimulates osteoclasts to break down bones, that's why bone pain is the most common symptom in multiple myeloma.
Since osteoblasts were not stimulated:-
1) Nuclear bone scans are useless to diagnose multiple myeloma.
2) Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) will NOT be elevated.

The anemia in multiple myeloma is normocytic normochromic (normal mean corpuscular volume "MCV").

Neurological symptoms include neuropathy​ as well as radiculopathy.
