Jim is having strong and painful hiccups continually today. It is the day after chemo and he is still wearing his 5fu fanny pack 24/7. Has anyone found a solution when having these continually?

Thanks so much!

Linda

    Hiccup relief
    You may want to ask your doctors if they can prescribe Thorazine. It has been extremely effective for my husband who is in a similar situation.
    Good luck

    Thorazine worked like a miracle for my Dad as well - it was the nurses who recommended it.
    Good luck!

    Thorazine
    We bought the Thorazine and it has helped greatly. Thanks to all who suggested it.
