Unhappy Ginger is Sick...Advice Please

Tonight at 5:30 pm, Ginger threw up yellow bile and I could see a dog treat half chewed in there. She has not been acting like herself since. Twice I have seen her sit and kinda hunch. She lays but doesn't look comfortable and changes positions. I have looked at her stomach and I can't tell that it's bloated or distended. I listened to her stomach and I did hear some gurgling noises.

I did some Googling and read about bloat and then pancreatitis. I'm thinking - but not sure - could it be pancreatitis. ?????

I just called the Emergency Vet and explained her symptoms. My question is this. Do I need to take her NOW or can I wait and see my regular vet first thing? Of course, I would prefer to see my vet but don't want to make the wrong call. They basically said for me to make the call and that I can wait and see how it goes. They are there all night so I can go anytime.

While I was on the phone with the vet, she vomited again - just now. My DH came to tell me as I was hanging up. When we cleaned it up, there was 2-3 clumps of hair in the yellow bile. She is a paw chewer.

I'm worried about my girl and need some advice. What do I do? Right now she is in her cloud 9 bed and is being still. She would normally be right beside me here on the couch.
