Neurologist,  's  Response
Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

Your husband symptoms seem to be related to acute psychosis. Partial seizures, may trigger this situation.
I don't think that these symptoms are related to Betanoid withdrawal.
Considering the fact that he had brain surgery for a tumor, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist for a brain CT scan and some tests : complete blood count, PCR for infection or inflammation.
An EEG may be necessary in case of suspicions of seizures.

You should discuss with his doctor on the above issues.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
