Phone conversation as follows, DH calls me two minutes after I ended a previous phone call (hastily) saying I really needed the loo:

Me: Potentially sounding slightly narked. 'Hi, what is it? I'm still on the loo.'
DH: 'That's not a very nice way to answer.'
Me: ...'But I literally just told you I was going to go to the loo. WHAT IS IT??'
DH: 'Well fuck you then.' Hangs up.

He has since called me twice and I have not answered. He is being VERY tetchy today - off medication for a week in advance of a medical test he needs before an operation so is quite uncomfortable, which I'm trying to be understanding about. But I really object to being sworn at...

Not reasonable, no. You have said why you needed to go, and he hasn't respected that. Is he thinking you were making excuses to get off the phone? Still out of order, regardless.

Why did you even answer the phone to him when you were on the loo?

Because I assumed the very quick call back was because he wanted to say/ask something important... Lesson learned Hmm.

We're s family that talks whilst on the toilet so I don't get having to hang up.

If he's struggling because he's off his meds, waiting for an op etc, then I'd put it down to that and just move on, tbh.
