Have you ever felt a burning sensation in your chest after a big meal? 🥵

Heartburn is a symptom of acid reflux, which occurs when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. The esophagus isn’t protected against the acid like the stomach is, leading to a burning feeling and discomfort.

Heartburn can be triggered by various factors including:
🍹 Alcohol
☕ Caffeine
🍟 High-fat foods
🍲 Overeating

If you experience heartburn more than twice a week, it may be a sign of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a chronic condition that causes heartburn. If you think you might be experiencing symptoms of GERD, be sure to talk to your healthcare provider.

For those with blood cancers and disorders like leukemia, having a donor match for stem cell or blood and marrow transplants (BMT) can be life changing. However, primarily due to misconceptions about the donor process, equity in donor match availability varies greatly across ethnicities in the U.S.

Some misconceptions about BMT and stem cell donations:
🚫 These are NOT organ donations.
🚫 Standard transplants DO NOT use embryonic stem cells — they use stem cells from bone marrow or peripheral blood.
🚫 Not all transplants require surgery. 90% of donations use apheresis, an outpatient process similar to donating plasma or platelets.

More diversity in the registry helps everyone. Even if you register and are never called, you’re still making a difference by simply being in the system for the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP).

At just 26 years-old, Ellie Rinehart never imagined she would be diagnosed with cancer. Her annual exam led to a life-altering diagnosis and a quick plan of action. We share Ellie’s story in honor of tonight’s Columbus Blue Jackets Hockey Fights Cancer Night. 🖤

Her journey began when she noticed a small freckle on her forehead that seemed to be slowly growing. During her annual, full-body skin check, she mentioned it to her dermatologist. While it didn’t look like typical skin cancer, the freckle was removed out of caution and two weeks later, Ellie received the news: it was melanoma.

“Hearing the word ‘melanoma’ at my age was life-altering,” Ellie recalls. “Thankfully, we caught it very early.”

She underwent an eight-hour Mohs surgery to remove the cancerous cells. The recovery was challenging but knowing how lucky she was to catch it early made the moments of discomfort worth it.

Ellie’s story is a powerful reminder that early detection saves lives — it made all the difference in her treatment and outcome, and it could do the same for you.
