dax, check into a deficiency of magnesium as a cause of hiccups. The chemotherapy possibly is causing a magnesium deficiency as does stress..

Honestly, the hiccups have been devastating. However, the cancer with the Keytruda is life debilitating. The side effects and quality of life has changed him forever. He told me if he would have known this, he would not have taken Keytruda. The side effect I doubt will ever go away. That’s if he is cancer free after 2 yrs of Keytruda. That’s as long as he can be on it. No one tells him anything. No one answers his questions. The only answer he gets is everyone is different. That’s a ridiculous answer when Mayo is basically a research hospital

He has been treated by Mayo for hiccups. He was told the doctor that rested patients with hiccups no longer does. As none of the outcomes of these patients turned out well. He takes magnesium everyday along with his other Multi’s.
We have been to many clinics fir the hiccups. I try to avoid anything with citric acid too.
He was a deep sea driver for 10 years. And that most likely is the cause of his hiccups.
