Is it normal to hallucinate when i am sick?

Whenever I am really sick I don't know what is worse. My body feeling like shit, or my mind going a mile a minute with repetitive thoughts and hallucinations that often play on repeat. Not only am I sick but I am unable to relax my mind. I will usually turn on classical music to try drowning them out.

    This could be brought on by a very high temperature

    Once a step brother I had temperature went up to 105-106 they had to rush him to the hospital people told me he started talking to a person who sat on the end of hus bed...the person was never there...his temperature got so high he hallucinated

    This has happened to me before. I had auditory and visual hallucinations. The latter half of the visual hallucinations were pretty terrifying. I was very sick but, my hallucinations could have just as easily been due to a medication I was on. That stuff made me see some strange and scary things. In general, I don't hallucinate when sick.

    It is a very bad sign if you hallucinate while sick. It usually happens when your trying to break a fever. When that happen all your blood is drawn to around your major organs to protect them. They why people when really sick their hands and feet get ice cold. What happens is when you have a bad cold your body heat rises called a Fever. You body does this to break the cold. Since most viruses can only live within a certain temperature close to that of normal body temp. range anything higher causes it to dye off. If you have a fever too long it can cause brain damage. Happen me once when I had Bronchial ammonia. A super warm bath helped. Went to the doctors to was place on some meds.
