Rabbitfish - Disease or just camouflage?

I got this gold spotted rabbitfish a week ago and the entire time it has looked like this with white irregular marks all over the body and along the edges. I know they can camouflage themselves but it has not yet appeared with normal colors. Is it sick or ok?
Thank you for any help!

Seems stressed out. Mine used to look like that whenever I'd have my hands in the tank.

Thank you for the response. A week seems like a long time to be stressed but I'll just give him more time in the QT tank.
 
I agree - appears to be stressed. It took ours awhile to not be completely freaked out but is now somewhat brave (for a rabbit fish!) and doesn't go all blotchy all the time.
