I’m puzzled by the fact that even though I haven’t had anything to eat, and I haven’t been flushing consistently (see the two days I missed), I still have to go to the bathroom every morning. I don’t what the reason is — perhaps, I’ve been steeping my senna tea for longer periods this time around (10-15 minutes).
