Holy hiccups!

Someone stand me on my head with a mouthful of Water and scare the living shit out of me while I'm holding my breath. Surely one of those will work, right?

I get these things ALL THE FREAKING TIME since surgery, and they drive me nuts! Usually they come on after the third bite of food and let me know I'm finished eating. This morning they've hit after a few sips of my Protein Shake, and there's no way I'm giving this baby up. I go to bed at night dreaming of waking up so I can enjoy my nice refreshing delicious Muscle Monster energy Protein shake. Hiccups be damned!!

WHEN I am done rolling on the floor, I'll tell you what I do..............................................................................................

OK. I'm done, for now.....I take in as much air as possible into my lungs. I hold it for ten long, slow seconds. Then I GENTLY and SLOWLY (S L O W L Y) release the air THROUGH MY NOSE (not my mouth). I then take very shallow, slow breaths in to see if it worked. If it didn't, I try it again. It is just a matter of relaxing the diaphragm, so it may take a few times. Good luck to you....back to rolling..........................................

This may not be easy to do if you are recently post op...but this works every time...get a small glass of Water....bend forward at the waist...and drink from the "opposite" side of the glass. I promise, it works every time.

@@wannaBthinsoon, that's a new one to me. I'm 5 and 1/2 months post, so not fresh out. I'll have to give that one a shot.
