I had my first seizure when I was 15 in the back of my dad's car. First off...Not fun times. Later I was diagnosed and put on topamax and, along with many other side effects, I started hiccupping once every half an hour. So I got taken off topamax and went on lamictal. Many of my side effects went away except for the hiccups! They were less frequent though. I went from one every half an hour to about one an hour. Now I have lived with this weird constant hiccup for about 3 years. I have given up wondering if it will every go away and I have learned to deal with the stares, the snickers, and the laughs. All I want to know is...Is there anyone out there that hiccups as well?? I mean one person that knows what I go through day in and day out. When I told my neurologist about the hiccupping problem, he said it was weird and he'd never heard about it before. But, please is there someone else here with me on this?
