Can the smell of dry erase markers give you the hiccups?

During my English class, we were using dry erase markers to write on our boards during a game of Jeopardy. The markers were really smelly and gave me a headache. During the end of our session with the markers, I got the hiccups. Then it lasted half of the next period. Is it possible that the smell of dry erase markers made my case of hiccups happen?Can the smell of dry erase markers give you the hiccups?
i doubt it, hiccups are very similar to burps, their bubbles of liquid that pop within your stomach which causes you to jolt suddenly. and i doubt the smell of dry erase markers would cause that. but hey, everyone's different.
