Fucking Hiccups.

I hate the hiccups because I never just get them once. Its always like a 2-3 day thing for me. I can get rid of them pretty easily, but they always come back. It could be five minutes later, or it could be 6 hours later. But then I'll do something to fuck up my breathing, like cough or sneeze or run, and then they're right back.
And since to get rid of them I have to hold my breath and drink water, I end up drinking several gallons of water a day when I have the hiccups.
I had them ALL day yesterday and I just woke up and coughed, and now I have them again. So I know I'll have them all fucking day.
Goddamnit.

I saw some girl on Maury who has been hiccuping for years. Hopefully yours turns out to be the same, that would be pretty funny.

I have a friend who constantly hiccups. All the fucking time. She always hiccups in twos as well. Two hiccups at a time.
Constantly.
She's reallly skinny but eats like absolute shit. Can't be healthy to hiccup so often

My mom found a cure for hiccups while working as a bartender.
Buy a bottle of Bitters. It is sold at liquor stores and is used in making mixed drinks. Get a lemon. Cut a slice of lemon and put a few drops of Bitters on the lemon slice. Then eat the lemon slice.
Hiccups disappear instantly. Not sure why, but it works.

I can get rid of by holding my breath and drinking water really slow.
It works awesome, but my recurring hiccups lead to me drinking a gallon of water an hour.

Something about the bitterness of the Bitters, and the sourness of the lemons, kinda resets your diaphragm.

hiccups are stopped by increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in your body. breathing in a bag, holding you breath, slow exhaling all those types of things should work.
i saw the girl on muary too. that would suck balls.

Between this and your being sick, it sounds like your body is revolting on you.

It's cuz you're a Cub's fan. You'll be hiccuping until they win the World Series.
So forever.

What generally works for me is hold a cup in one hand full of water (almost to the spilling point) and bend as if you were going t touch your toes. Then drink from the cup upside down, concentrating on this as well as the muscles working backwards has always worked for me, and for several people i've told, gluck >:D.
