A member asked:
Could you explain why do i get terrible nightmares when i'm sick?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The science of: Nightmares is not advanced enough at this point to answer the question why. Perhaps in another five or 10 years we will know the underlying biochemistry. I would suspect that there are inflammatory chemicals involved. Best wishes.
