I was wondering what does it mean when you have extreme hunger pains in the morning?

Check with your PCP: Although it is normal to have hunger in the morning, having severe hunger 'pains' is not. Some people that have pain in the 'stomach' that improve with food might have a duodenal ulcer. Usually this is not just in the morning. Check with your doctor for more complete history and workup.
