I recently started up chemo for gastric adenocarcinoma. I have a question does anyone get painful hiccups that are hard to get rid of. If so how are ways to deal with this. Stay strong God bless and keep fighting.

Painful hiccups during chemotherapy can be really challenging and disruptive to daily comfort. Many people in the cancer community experience this side effect, and there are several approaches that might help, including breathing techniques, sipping cold water, or gentle pressure points - though it's always best to discuss persistent symptoms with your care team since they may have specific recommendations or medications that can provide relief. Your strength and positive spirit really shine through, and this community is here to support you through every step of your treatment journey.

I have heard there are medications that can stop hiccups. Does your oncologist know about tge hiccups?
