Hi,
I know this question is a bit odd but the acupuncturist I used to go to told me one should only go to the washroom 1 time a day.
I wake up at 6am and go to the washroom and sometimes around 11 am I need to go again. The stool looks ok but if it is not right I need to take a look at my diet. I am really concerned about losing any more weight as I am so underweight.
Cheerio
