Hi.

I understand your concerns.

If he is on a lot of medications, specifically pain medications, they can create a feeling of excitement and energy. This is likely decided by the doctor to reduce the pain and let him enjoy.

Please confirm this with the doctor.

I hope this helps you. All the best.
