I know what you mean about doctors not listening to you I had a heart attack five years ago they put me on so much medicine I started to have hiccups this went on for over a month so bad that my wife called and ambulance to take me back to the hospital they didn’t know why it was happening they even tried thorazine all it did was make me sleepy it got so bad I couldn’t catch my breath so my wife started looking up all the new medicine I was on and found one that said that it could cause problems with your Diaphragm so I stopped that one and two days later no more hiccups so keep telling them what you are dealing with you are your best advocate .
