I was suffering with those kind of hic-ups where, when you hic-up, your chest hurts like crazy! I thought to myself, "they will go away sometime" so i was playing one of my favorite games on the computer and they would not go away! so i instantly closed the game and went to ask.com and typed in how to cure the hic-ups and wow! i pulled this one up and i was amazed! it worked in two seconds! litteraly. two seconds!
