Bill had terrible hiccups....just awful convulsive ones that drove him nuts.
After his second chemo, they started and when they recurred on the third chemo, we asked the doc about it. He prescribed Reglan and believe or not, Thorazine. They definitely helped so Bill would take them a couple of days before and after his treatments. No more hiccups.
So you are not alone...
