puking up bile

I've been waking up early in the morning a lot lately to puke up bile and I don't know why, I'm fine after I do it and then I just feel like I have to eat.  I haven't been sleeping well and then I'll just get that sudden urge to puke when your mouth fills up with saliva.  Does anyone have any ideas?

i get this too. i think that its because theres nothing in my small intestine at night so the bile backs up through the pyloric sphincter (the circular muscle that closes the stomach off from the small intestine), causing me to puke the bile. unfortunately, i havent found a solution to it yet. you might try having a meal juste before going to bed, or keeping a snack by your bed in case you wake up hungry during the night (though i dont usually wake up until after the horrible nausea sets in). otherwise, just try talking to a gastroenterologist.
