DH was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 1 year ago. He is normally lovely but occasionally will have the most awful outbursts of temper which just come out of the blue and he will swear at me, call me all the names under the sun, tell me our marriage is over etc. It will be the smallest thing which triggers it off - totally insignificant, he will be like it for an hour or so and really moody and silent after the outburst or doing the kind of school bully thing where whatever I say is the wrong answer. Then all of a sudden like flicki ng a switch he is back to normal and lovely again. This doesnt happen very often, about once every three or four months but it does un-nerve me when it does. He says it is when his blood sugar is off and he doesnt mean any of it.
I have no previous experience of diabetes so wonder if this sort of thing can happen or whether he is just being an arse and using it as an excuse?
