I can't believe there is no real cure for such a relatively innocent inconvenience. There's all sorts of stuff people would like you to believe, like take a bunch of sips of water while holding your breath, or get someone to scare the crap out of you, but apparently that's all bullshit. A couple of years ago i read something in the newspaper about a man who had nonstop hiccups for quite a long time, and once every medical option was out of the way, he eventually took his own life. Suicide seems always ridiculous, but in this case i can fully understand why a man would do such a thing. I mean how can a person even get a minute of sleep if these hiccups never stop ? Or how can you eat ?
