Deb, I wish I could remember the name of the med they gave me for hiccups I got during chemo. If none of the various other methods work, there are definitely meds that can help with it - they worked for me.

I remember thinking...of all the symptoms from cancer treatment - hiccups???? It sure is annoying and frustrating when you can't get rid of them. Best wishes in getting rid of them.
