Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have hypertension that is reasonably controlled by medication (actually it s normally well controlled).Yet, I ve noticed more than once on bad days that along with my elevated bp I often get heartburn and hiccups. Is there really a connection between my bp and the hiccups or is it merely a coincidence?
