Took as needed. Found idea on internet. Hiccups never mild. Had same problem with belching which continues to this day. Both occur when eating very spicy food which I love. Never had nausea during awful treatments like many do and always ate my favorites. Enjoying food has helped me deal with the many side effects treatments caused mainly neuropathy. Bottom line everyone reacts differently to cancer and there is no cookie cutter answer when one looks for an answer to why me or did this happen to anyone else? I spend time on these blogs to help others with my experience that may make their journey easier.
