Constant & abrupt hiccups

2018-08-14 16:12:30
My mom(age 50) gets constant, abrupt & loud hiccups. It seems to escalates when she is more tired or working in heat.It started few years ago, stopped for a while & started again. It generally happens in the gap of a week or two. Weakness, severe headache are some of the major effect of it. Medical professionals in my area are not able to figure out the problem & hence no solutions. Hoping for good response.
