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
