I have the hiccups :(

Seriously - the feck. They won't go a away and it's kind of pissing me off now.

I wouldn't mind so much if I was twelve years of age. I'm out in public. The **** is wrong with my body!!!

Step 1: Start by inhaling through your mouth until your lungs feel full (when it feels like you cannot inhale any more.... your lungs will basically stop taking in air).

Step 2: Swallow. You are not really swallowing anything but it seems that without this act, it doesn’t work. Do not let any air out.

Step 3: Now inhale some more until your lungs feel full again. You may not be able to inhale a lot, but do get some more air in. It will start to get difficult to do this as you go, but keep trying. You obviously can’t suck in as much air as you did initially, but just a little will do (think of it as taking a “sip” of air but directly into your lungs).

Step 4: Swallow again. This too will start to get difficult as you go. Do not let any air out.

Step 5: Repeat steps 3 and 4 (inhale and swallow) until you cannot swallow again. While it seems you can almost always suck in just a little more air, it is actually the swallowing that gets to be impossible. When you feel like you cannot swallow again, swallow again anyway. It will be hard to do, your face will probably turn red, and you may make squeaking sounds. But you CAN swallow one last time. By this time, your lungs should also be quite full and it should be difficult to get much more air in as well. While you should try not to let any air out, if you have really repeated steps 3 and 4 as many times as you can, you probably will end up letting a little air out before you can take that last swallow. If you find that air keeps escaping out of your nose even early in the process, try squeezing it shut with your fingers.

Step 6: Exhale.

could have Ebola

Hmmmm. Ya fecker. I don't think we should be friends anymore.

Anyway - hiccups are gone. I'm on public transport though and bored. Anybody got an idea to turn this into a halfway decent thread??

I have, but I'm keeping it to myself.

I never understood why people have problems getting rid of hiccups.

100% guaranteed method:

Sit down and lean forward slightly.
Take a deep breadth and hold.
Do no move any muscle in your body for 10-15 seconds...still holding your breadth. Stay completely still...it's critical.
Breath out slowly.

If that doesn't work, I'll pm you a copy of my last ESB bill. It's shocking.

What are you riding?

This works. And it also works if something goes down the wrong way and you're coughing and spluttering and eyes streaming. Guaranteed.

Take a deep breath, then put your hands in the air and clasp your hands above your head. Hold breath as long as you can while keeping hands up.

Repeat if necessary.

This action expands the diaphgragm, and solves hiccups and the crumbs etc.gone down the wrong way.

Those weren't owls - they were cats glued together.

They're probably gone by now but this works.

Drink some water or something else you have to hand and at the same time pull on your ear lobe.
