@auntieoakley- Very rarely do I get them like you just described. This must be so frightening for you. It is for me when it's bad. What has your doctor said about it? Have you had any chest surgery? You've had a very rough time with your husband and sleep is so important, I can't imagine how you did it?
How is he now?

I had multiple breast surgeries with the breast cancer, also chemo and radiation, and hormone therapy. No actual chest surgeries. My doctors just shook their heads like I was joking when I told them I got the hiccups all the time, what did your doctors say? There is a funny story here, my husband said he would dream he was driving over speed bumps before he woke up. About 5 years ago I had to be in the hospital and they said when I relax or sleep my oxygen levels drop and they prescribed an oxygen concentrator at night, I don’t know why but it stopped them at night and I was able to sleep in my bed again. How is it going for you now? My husband is doing good, he is pretty tired but still able to enjoy his life.
