Ann Wraith, 48, from Glasgow, says she initially believed her symptoms were a lingering cold. In January this year, she is diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, after experiencing persistent exhaustion along with night sweats and disrupted sleep. According to reports, she had no clear or well-known symptoms before her illness began, and the symptoms she noticed were not initially recognized as signs of cancer. The accounts describe how her broken sleep and night sweats prompted medical attention, leading to the cancer diagnosis. Multiple myeloma is a blood cancer that affects plasma cells, and it is often identified through investigations prompted by ongoing systemic symptoms. The coverage focuses on her experience of first assuming she had a common respiratory illness, only to learn that her condition was more serious. The reports do not indicate any different diagnosis or additional competing details, presenting her story as an example of how cancer symptoms can be mistaken for more everyday illnesses.
