What Could Excessive Hiccups With Saliva Suggest?
My husband gets the hiccups frequently during dinner, especially when we have steak or pork chops. They will not go away, he has excessive saliva and has to go off where he can spit or actually vomit. This goes on for over an hour and he looks very pale , I worry about a heart condition. He has always had a sufficient amount of alcohol at the time this happens.
