Dh said he doesn’t need to remember I’m allergic to penicillin

yesterday my health got brought up with dh and I said I’m allergic to penicillin. Dh acted all surprised even though I’ve been in hospital before and it’s been brought up several times at various appointments and I feel like he should know by now (together 15 years)

he said he didn’t need to remember one specific drug, doctors will work it out and he can say it’s the one everyone is allergic to. We travel a lot so we’re not always in developed countries either which worries me now.

i said he surely he can just remember it as that’s better. He said he can’t help not being able to remember everything and he won’t be remembering it and that’s that.

Aibu to be pissed off that he apparently won’t bother remembering one drug I’m allergic to?!

People remember the things that are important( and I have a terrible memory! ) there may be a situation where you are unable to answer for yourself, and there isn’t always time for doctors to work out “that one everyone is allergic to”. Does your husband have memory problems where he cannot remember things or he just can’t be arsed to remember something very important about the person he loves. I think you remember important things about him. How rude to say I can’t be bothered to completely care about you, you deserve more than that x
Also, yes to medical info bracelet for sure x 💐
