Have you tried senna tea or Senakot from the drug store or health store?

It works great and natural to boot. Stay by the porcelain.

Elvira, what were you thinking!

Fruit dear, loads of fruit and prune juice.

Something I'm stuck with I'm afraid. Veg, fruit, all those over the counter things...nothing works long term.

Funny thing is my husband is entirely the opposite.
