Encourage them to tell their physician. Sometimes people who have been in ICU or any hospital situation for that matter, can get "white room" or ICU syndrome.

Sometimes too, Taltarzac, people can get delirium from the anesthesia and it takes awhile for the anesthesia to completely leave the person's system and can this create confusion and hallucinations.

They may be on another pain medication since they came out of surgery and this is causing adverse effects. But please, encourage them to talk to their doctor.
