Constant Hiccup, Desperately Seeking a Cure
Hiccup!
Hiccup!
Hiccup!
Can you imagine what life would be like if you hiccupped every single day for over 15 months with no idea how to make it go away?
That is what is happening to a British musician Chris Sands.
He has tried everything from hypnosis to yoga to no avail.
Scans on his chest and brain have not confirmed what causing the hiccups. He suspects it is a stomach valve damaged by acid reflux disease.
He is hoping a surgery that helps tighten a damaged valve by wrapping around part of his stomach on it will help him.
Chris says he has hard time eating and sleeping and he feels physically worn out.
I wonder what Charles Osborne of Antone, Iowa felt. Apparently he hiccupped for 68 years straight!
