Five weeks of hiccups finally ends

Jennifer Mee, 15, of St. Petersburg, Florida, has finally gotten over five weeks of hiccups that started January 23. That's nothing though compared to Charles Osborne's Guinness World Record-setting case that lasted 68 years. Fortunately, Mee's hiccups stopped when she was sleeping. Nobody knows why the hiccups finally ended. From the Associated Press:

"Right now, my nose is burning and my throat hurts," she told the St. Petersburg Times, but she said she felt a lot better than she has in weeks...

She saw an infectious disease specialist, a neurologist, a chiropractor, a hypnotist and an acupuncturist. She tried a patented device that is designed to stop hiccups, plus all the old remedies.
