Good day, I've been having trouble sleeping at night for almost 2 months now, and it's really starting to worry me. My throat always feels dry even though I drink water all the time. I also experience some chest pain and burping, sometimes even heartburn. I've noticed bumps on the back of my tongue and a white patch in the center too. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm having some trouble with my digestive system and it's starting to worry me a bit. I've been noticing blood in my stool, and I often feel the urge to go to the bathroom multiple times, but my stomach still feels like it's not completely clear afterward. My stools have also become quite narrow. Could you help me understand what's going on and maybe suggest a stool test that I might need?
