worried sick mother

My son has been back from rehab one week today, I've yet to see him or even hear his voice. We have had a few text messages that I instigated, he seems very short with me, not mean just short. He lives 45 minutes away from me in another town. He doesn't have a job but is suppose to be looking. I have ask him if he has food and he says he's good. His girlfriend got fired from her job last week so now their both unemployed. His counselor at rehab had told me to help with bills for one month to give him time to find a job. I didn't want him to do anything illegal or not be supportive, he hasn't ask me for anything. He did however ask my mom to help with rent for the upcoming month, she told him she would have to check with his parents and he told her not to involve us that he didn't want any drama and that he had boundaries with us now. He doesn't want us to know where he lives, his girlfriend moved to a new apartment while he was in rehab. Something is just not right, I don't know what it is though. He seems to not want much to do with us, especially me. He has younger siblings that he doesn't seem to want a relationship with at all. He is still on my phone plan and I checked his records and he has been messaging with one of his old drug buddies that I know sells heroin. I don't know if I should confront him about this or cancel the phone service. He has said he is bored to death because they do not have cable or internet which my mom used to provide. He had a Vivitrol injection before he left rehab so he can't get high off opiates but I have a feeling he's doing something. I just feel if something wasn't going on that he would want to see his family, we were close and had a good relationship before drugs. What do you guys think??
