Tim has been on oral prednisone for a couple of weeks for a Crohn's Disease exacerbation . He is normally a VERY moody person anyway. While I totally understand what he's going through; I still want to lock him in a room until it's over!!!

He is in constant "attack" mode with me and our sons. He usually apologizes after he goes off on a tirade, but my gosh, I'm already on the verge of tears 24/7 lately!

It is a bit funny though when I say to him, "it's the steroids talking, not you" and he gets sooo mad!!! It's like telling a woman "there, there dear it's just the pms talking"!!! LOL

Ok. I feel better . I gotta go hide under the bed now .

lol joelle you sound like my wife when i am on them, i get so testy and sometimes i too pop before i think, then i get bummed cause i behaved so poorly, if its any help you are correct its the roids talking, talk about a double edged medicine steroids are that, hope he feels better soon, good luck joelle

I'm so sorry Joelle! I know when I've been on steroids, DH just looks at me with a scolded puppy look a lot of the time. I get rather demanding and slightly argumentative. Last time in the hospital, I was on the phone with the office giving them orders of what should be done, and how, when and why. The nurses in the room just looked at each other like, gee, could it be the steroids perhaps? She wasn't like this when she checked in!

Well, I hope your DH gets to feeling better soon, Joelle~~ You've certainly had a rough yr. Still keeping ya in my prayers.

Oh, and just tune him out.... He'll get over it soon!

ouch, sorry he's (and the family) going thru this.

i hope he's feeling better soon.

LOL Joelle! Now he knows what we go through! I hope he gets better soon...what a crappy side effect!!
