Default Drinking Again, Tsk Tsk

Hey Hope

I sent you an email but wanted to share this on the forum b/c I saw it work once for someone who suffered horribly with hiccups. She was so amazed and grateful!

My friend had her put a cold pack on a certain muscle on the side of her neck (it may have been the omohyoid muscle, I'm not sure - his dad was a dr., he called it the "hiccup" muscle).

Her awful hiccups fell silent seconds later. 'Twas a miracle, I tell ya!

The omohyoid muscle is attached to the horseshoe-shaped omohyoid bone which I think is involved with the swallowing mechanism. Only muscle in the body which changes direction and something else unique about it... can't remember right now but has to do w/what it attaches to on other end

bye kids hope this helps someone
