Hi DGPhoney!!!
The only thing that works for me: hold your breath, until you feel that the hiccup has "passed." For me, I only have to hold it for like a few seconds (when you feel that the hiccup is coming on), and then no more hiccups!! Try it...it's so easy, you don't need anything extra (like a person to hold your ears, or a pencil, etc.)!
I'm sure your hiccups are already gone by now
, but this is for future reference
