Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to gives understanding to level of physical activity, occurrence of fatigue and quality of life amongst multiple myeloma survivors in the local setting. As multiple myeloma survival improves, it is vital to focus on interventions that will help to maximize QOL. A positive correlation may suggest that exercise is such an intervention. The hypothesis are multiple myeloma survivors are performing low levels of physical activity. Higher levels of physical activity will be associated with higher levels of QOL and lower fatigue levels.
