This, I have never seen where it did not work.

The grains of sugar react to the nerve in the back of your mouth/throat that causes the hiccups.

Just relax and watch this video.

8 gulps of water without stopping, gets rid of the air in your stomach and stops them.

Soft bread and/or pasta can give me hiccups.

My story: As a result of a drug side effect, I started with hiccups. It continued to get worse until I would have two right after another, pause for 2 seconds and then 4 or 5 more running together until I would gasp for breath, repeat over and over. They gave me a drug in the ER that was supposed to kill them, but it did not work. Dr said I would have to wait until the drugs flushed out of my system. Hiccups lasted for 56 hours. Then as a result of a screw up in the pharmacy they gave me another dose of the same thing. Those lasted another 36 hours. 6 hours rest in between hiccup marathons.

I can’t wait to show this to my wife ,,,,,,, she is going to pee her pants….lol

I have a Cure

pen, pencil, straw sideways in your mouth

Drink a glass of water. hiccups Gone

Drinking water upside down works for me sometimes.

I have to with the folks who said sugar. I learned from an Irish bartender in CA thirty five years ago. Put a teaspoon of sugar on your tongue and wait as long as you can then drink a small glass of water. Never seen it not work.

I can't imagine what it's like to have them for 24 hours or more.

I think I remember you posting that!!!

I get them bad sometimes from eating spicy food I'm not used to, I take a deep breath and bend over in a chair really deep bend and hold the breath until I feel dizzy or light headed, while still bent over take another deep breath, and do it again, never had it fail me !!

Second date with now wife at a nice resturant

she got hiccups as the bill arrived. pulled out a hundred dollar bill and tossed it on the table and said one more time and you can have that! Picked up Ben and put him back in the wallet!

I also recommend taking a teaspoon full of sugar by mouth straight it has always immediately taken my hiccups away.
