It might be related but certainly is not serious, unless maybe if hiccups persist for hours or more.

This usually would be related to the strep throat, or you possibly could be having a viral sinus infection. Symptoms that would require further testing would be severe pain in your throat, difficulty swallowing or difficulty breathing. If you have these seek immediate medical evaluation.
