My husband has engaged in aggressive acts toward me at night. He has punched my face (after minor face surgery); squeezed my left nipple & breast (after I underwent a breast biopsy); stood over me & poked my arm; & last night he awoke me, slurring his words & demanding that I give him a knife. I gently slapped his face, & realized that he was unconscious. I am afraid of him & afraid to tell him...

I gently slapped his face, & realized that he was unconscious. I am afraid of him & afraid to tell him that I will sleep in another room--there is no lock on the door, however. These symptoms began with the Pegasys treatment. Is that a coincidence? Am I in danger? He has always been a kind & gentle man. If I call 911 it would ruin his career. I am beside myself with worry. To conclude, my question is this: is this a side effect of Pegassis? I would appreciate your feedback on this unsettling matter. Sincerely, Linda Busque Read More Read Less
