Default a cure for the hiccups???

Right now I have them, and they are killing me. Why oh why did I have them get them??? Each hiccup is causing untold amounts of pain on my week old stitches....WHYYYYYYY.

Sorry, I had to complain.

I know of two cures

First one is hold your breath...which never works for me

Second one always works for me. Block your ears and have a drink (easier done with a straw)

Also they say if you get a shock or surprise they will go.


Hope they go soon!

These may sound strange...

Swallow a spoon full of sugar.

or...

Drink water upside down. Place yourself in the bathtube and bend over - then drink.. well backwards. That one always seemed to help me.

Hehe. GOOD LUCK! 'Cause hiccups stink.

Put some water (or any drink I guess) in your mouth, then bend over so your head is upside down and swallow it. That's the only thing that ever works for me.

I'm sorry i don't know any good cures I hope you get rid of them though, because they can be annoying for you and the people around you.

Are yours like mine? When you get them, they go away - but then they come back a little later...then go away...then come back...then go away...then come back...then on and on for about a day or two? If so, i'm so sorry!!! If not, YOUR LUCKY!!!

best cure is just to breathe slowly and deeply and divert your attention

yeah, I have the type that you think are gone then 10mins later they are back again.
And it really sucks, I can't do any of the bending over thing...I just had a breast reduction surgery this past monday (the 17th) and I can't bend over. Each and every hiccup just sent shooting pains all over. Oh well, they are gone now. I guess it happened when my 17lb monster cat tried to crawl up on my chest.
by the way...it hurts to screaml too. lol
