How Can Hiccups Be Treated?

I have had hiccups for 7 days after having surgery and anesthia. I have been prescribed chlorpromazine through a physican at our local emergency department. It temporarily stops them but does not cure them. What medical professional should I see since my general practitioner does know of any cure.Would acupuncture be an alternative to meds?
