You said you tried it all but:
Hold your breath
Drink lots of water
Tell someone to scare you
Hope they go away!!

Re: I've been hiccuping for 2 hours.
I get hiccups a lot and for long periods of time too.
What I do is take a deep breath and hold it as i'm holding it I take tiny sips of water so i'm continuously swallowing... don't stop swallowing for about a minute straight. This usually works for me.

Re: I've been hiccuping for 2 hours.
your diaphragm is spasming. In order to make it stop hold your breath and bear down into your gut. It will take 2-3 times until it stops. Hold your breath as long as you can and then slowly let it out.

Re: I've been hiccuping for 2 hours.
DH used to get violent hiccups and a bartender turned him on to a cure that worked every time.
Take a lemon wedge, top it with a teaspoon full of sugar, and a splash of Bitters. Eat the lemon, sugar & bitters.
In a pinch once, I gave him a shot of lemon juice with a heaping spoonful of sugar and it did the trick too.

Re: I've been hiccuping for 2 hours.
Try taking 7 sips of anything in a row without taking a breath in between. That works for me 99 times out of 100.
Good luck!
