No no no, he is sedated the entire time. In fact this entire story occurs within a period of about 24 hours in the real world. What he experiences as 3 months in only due to the time dilating effects of damage to his temporal love from the creatures' experiments. The entire point of the story is that none of what happens in it occurs in the real world, it is all a delusion created by his deteriorating mental state due to the creatures' experiments.
