Anemia

Bone cancer increases the chances of developing anemia, since the cancer directly attacks the bone, where red blood cells (RBCs) are created. Moreover, since the body is funneling resources into manufacturing white blood cells (WBCs) to attack the cancer cells, there will be less materials available to create red blood cells.

Without an adequate supply of RBCs to deliver oxygen to other parts of the body, you will feel fatigued, weak, and cold.
