Ondansetron

I have a recently acquired mTBI(mild Traumatic Brain Injury) and started taking Ondansetron which has been a godsend for nausea.

Here's the fun part. And I'm still kinda partial to thinking that it was just a weird happenstance and will never happen again and I'm making a mountain out of a molehill.

This morning I had my first ever hallucination. I had been awake for a while. I put my phone down to do something and then turned to look so that I could pick up my phone and check the time. When I looked at my phone there was something like a big marble that was black with red dots all over it. I stared at it hard for a second, blinked hard, and this time what I saw was a moth/butterfly that was black with red dots. I kind a freaked for some reason. It just looked wrong and it had stared to move. I was actually AFRAID to wave my hand at it because I didn't want it flying in my face.
I blinked again and it was GONE, not flown away (it wouldn't have been able to have left my field of vision that quickly) but rather gone.
Yes there's a little line in the warnings about hallucinations but this is a first and I'm not experiencing any other side effects worth mentioning.
I feel stupid for even mentioning it here but would rather feel like a dope here than calling the neurologist's office about it. (I've already had a hell of a time with a different medication)

Highly unlikely there's anything wrong! I get that. I guess I just want to here other people say 'yeah des, get over it. It was nothing'
 
It could have been the Zofran.
It could have been the sleep dep.
It could have been the TBI.
It could have been a combo of any or all of the above.

Call your neurologists office.
 
Yeah yeah...
Alright. I TRIED to go through the portal to leave a message but their system is FUBAR. The receptionist is a real dimwit so I don't actually trust her to get the message to the doc. She's screwed up before. I'll give it a go and see what happens.
I mean... other than being trippy and unnerving, it was kind of cool.
