My father has been suffering from constant hiccups and burps to Hethersett at the same time since the past 4/5 days, is also unable to sleep in the night. Hiccups become excessive after lunch/dinner. Vomiting sensation is also felt sometimes. Have consulted physicians/gastroenterologist but they always specify medicines which do not help him much. Any help would be appreciated.
