Hiccups/Hiccoughs

Hi All,
I’m a couple of months from my diagnosis, about 9 months from noticeable onset of PD symptoms …
I had a full ankle joint replacement on 28/09/22…
I’ve developed a distressing symptom today…I’ve bad hiccups after eating or drinking anything, it stops me eating half way through a meal…

Has anyone come across this, or have an opinion if it is PD related or not?

Thanks in advance
Andrew…

Just catching up with the Forum after many months. I find that I get indigestion and quite painful hiccups after a meal in a situation which is either stressful or when I’m perhaps with friends and more animated than usual. Possibly carbonated drinks don’t help either. I assume it’s all connected with the effects of stress on our PD.
