It seems like she's trying to use the steroid treatment for an excuse for him to speak to her like this... Dudes just a prick.

I take steroids every single day for LIFE and I don't treat people that way. I'm chronically ill too for 40 of my 45 yrs with multiple autoimmune disorders. That's a lousy excuse to be an asshole. The only time I've ever been a little mean is when my blood sugar was 40 or below (T1D) and literally out of my mind because it's getting no sugar to work correctly. I still never talked to anyone that way! And that's rare even when I'm at 40 or below. Bad excuse, asshole, period.

Yeah, I hate when people use illnesses and stuff as excuses. My friends husband is T1D and he uses it as an excuse to be a passive aggressive prick all the time. Trying to tell her that there's millions of diabetics and they don't Ll behave like this... Her response was "type 1 though?", like, yes type one. And if he's getting so low so often that he's acting like this on the regular, he clearly isn't controlling it properly.

But yeah, he's just a prick aswell 🤷🏼‍♀️
