A member asked:

Could being hungry and sleepy make you hallucinate?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Comments: Possible, especially if you are drinking alcohol, using recreational drugs, or getting hypoglycemic, but a systemic disorder could be causing your hunger and sleepiness. Maybe you would be best to schedule a Concierge visit.
