I'm not even sure which category to put this under. For the past 4 months or so, I've been getting hiccups a lot more than usual. I probably get a "fit" of hiccups at least every other day. I will also hiccup randomly (as in just one hiccup) about every hour. More recently, for about the past month I've been burping involuntarily (is it always involuntary). Most recently, it happens once every 5-10 mins. It's not too obtrusive, but it's weird/annoying. Before this, I almost never burped, didn't know what burping felt like, cannot make myself burp, etc.
At my last physical (about a month ago) my doctor noted that I had a lot of air inside my abdomen. She just told me this and I didn't really think much of what it meant. Now I think it's all related.
I would feel REALLY silly going to the doctor about hiccups but I think I might go soon. Most recently I feel sort of a "pressure" in my stomach, nothing too bad and nothing painful.
Does anyone have ANY idea of what this is? I was thinking maybe a food sensitivity. How the heck do they get rid of air inside of you? And how is this all treated?
