Am I not important enough for him to remember?

[Isobored]

DH and I both have huge work commitments currently and working long hours.
I have endo, suffer from terrible pain and I am reliant on prescription meds to get me though my period. Asked DH yesterday to collect my script because I was working in the city and not able to get to the Dr and he was at home, so logistically made sense.
But he forgot. So I'm now facing a weekend of pain. AIBU to think if I was important to him he would remember?
For context we've recently had a conversation about me carrying all the mental load, house and putting in 60+ hours a week. He agreed to make more of an effort ......then this.

Does he seem genuinely apologetic and contrite about having forgotten, or has he shrugged it off and told you if you wanted it doing you should have done it yourself? I think his attitude would make a big difference to me.

Really rough weekend, ended up in A&E with the pain being so bad. Suspected burst cyst or ectopic pregnancy. Got home after my obs were stable with a script for anti nausea and optiates. Asked DH if he could go and get them for me this morning. DH said, you'll need to wait (this was at 8am) I have a meeting at 9:30. The pharmacy is a 15 minute round trip. 'How did you get through the night, you'll just need to wait til 11am'
I feel like I've just realised I'm married to a heartless man .....

Wow, what an uncaring shit.

Do you have a kind neighbour or family/friend that could pick it up for you?

Well there is your answer

Wow. At least you have your answer.

Unfortunately there is no one near, I took myself. He's still in his meeting so I would have been waiting until lunch time.
Honestly my boss has been more empathetic than my horrible husband.

I'm missing an important audit at work today. Shit happens. I don't see why he couldn't have told his meeting attendees. I might be a few minutes late. My wife was in hospital last night .....

I'm so sorry OP. He does sound horrid for not caring, especially after you were in A&E. I'd be having a chat with him and telling him to buck up

Viviennemary Are you eating your words for such a condescending and dismissive post? OP this is up there in a LTB scenario if there ever was one. I'd have ripped the hide off your husband if you were my patient and I heard how he treated you!

Oh god, sorry to hear this.

I would be thinking very seriously what this is all about, this is not right.

I hope you feel better soon.

If he won't put your needs above his when you're in severe pain and his needs are, frankly, not urgent... I really question why you're in a relationship with him.

Just saw your update. He is really showing you who he is. Time to have a think about how you want your future to be.
As for prescriptions. I know you are in Aus, but do you have any prescription delivery services there? My ed takes Tramadol and she is able to get that delivered. My yd used to take codeine which she also had delivered.
I hope you are feeling a bit better now

He's a prize dick ! You've much bigger problems than the pain 😡

I’m sorry, OP. That’s shitty.

This is soul destroyingly depressing to read

Your update is shocking. I was going to defend him at first. Him being human and all. But this?!?

Is he like this all the time or only in regards to your period pain (as in: does he not believe you when you explain your pain to him)

I'm so sorry to hear how unsupportive he's being. That he made you wait for his meeting after forgetting the meds not a couple of days earlier is really shocking and uncaring.

Wow. You are way down the priority list OP. I'd look at my own priorities if I were you.

After reading your latest update your husband is a dick.
Leave him.

I'm so sorry @Isobored he is a douche bag.

Hope your meds have kicked in.

Meds have kicked in but I have really been through the wringer. DH can be emotionally very difficult, especially when he is stressed. But even for him, this is extreme! His lack of care is astonishing. Still really uncomfortable this morning and all the drugs have upset my tummy so been in and out of bed all night. Ask DH if he could make me a tea, he finishes playing his game on his phone, has a shower gets ready for the day. Starts his own breakfast, then puts the kettle on ...... but if I get up because I'm sick of waiting I'm a martyr ☹️

I mean I know this sounds a stupid thing to say. But does he know how you feel about all of this. Have you said all of this outloud?

Have you said to him that this weekend and your lack of care feel like nails in the coffin of our marriage?

Do NOTHING for this man anymore until you hopefully leave him. He doesnt care about you.

I think this is much bigger than him forgetting your meds. If I needed taking to the pharmacy or meds getting for me, I know my dh would be on it immediately. Playing a game on his phone, having a shower then getting the tea, wtf? Honestly, OP, I think you need a serious think about this guy. Please tell me you aren’t hoping to have dc with him? It sounds like ypu’d be a lone parent despite being married.
