View allI often find myself vomiting bile when I wake up if I haven't slept for at least six hours. I've also noticed my appetite isn't what it used to be. It's starting to worry me a bit. Could you shed some light on what's going on and how I might address this?
Vomiting bile after waking up, especially with less than 6 hours of sleep, and experiencing low appetite, may indicate an underlying issue such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), acid reflux, or a digestive disorder; consider consulting a gastroenterologist

I'm 23 and I've been dealing with constipation for the past six months, even though I eat well. I saw a gastroenterologist and followed their treatment plan, but the relief was only temporary and the issue keeps coming back. I take Meftal Spas for my period pain and read somewhere that this medication might affect bowel movements. Could that be causing my constipation? I also feel lazy all the time and have a thyroid problem. What should I do about this?
Meftal Spas, which contains dicyclomine and paracetamol, can indeed cause constipation as a side effect. To help with your constipation, you can try taking a stool softener like Duphalac (Lactulose) 15-30 ml once daily at night. Additionally, increasing your fiber intake with a supplement like Metamucil (Psyllium) 1 tablespoon mixed with water once or twice daily can also be beneficial. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day and stay physically active. If your symptoms persist, it's important to consult with your doctor for further evaluation and management of your constipation.
