I 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've been dealing with hepatitis B for a while and I'm currently on tenvir. I've also been struggling with acne and was thinking about trying resoten 20 mg capsules.

Question

I've been having this weird issue where sometimes I can't swallow my food without drinking water. I used to eat just fine without it, but now it feels like the food gets stuck halfway. As soon as I drink some water, though, I can swallow it down. It's not happening all the time, just sometimes, but it's got me worried. Any idea why this might be happening?
