animals such as a white dinosaur and an orange tiger; the latter included hearing voices from different men talking about buying groceries in a supermarket and having once received a command hallucination asking her to pull away her nasal cannula. Repeated EEG showed no epileptiform discharges. Diagnostic Workup
