Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have visual hallucinations. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like parkinson's disease , pchizophrenia , alcohol withdrawal syndrome , drug withdrawal or side effects of medicine . I would suggest you to consult neurologist for proper examination . Doctor may alter the dose of your medicine or prescribe substitute . Doctor may also order CT scan , MRI along with taking history . Doctor may treat according to diagnosis . For now take healthy diet and do light exercises like meditation if your can .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
