Having marriage problems. Really don't know what to do.

Will try to keep this short but there is a lot going on. Firstly, I have a brain injury that has affected my memory so am never quite sure if I've forgotten or am getting muddled which makes things very difficult when I try to discuss things with my OH. My problem is this, I think my OH still has feelings for his ex. There's been many things that make me thinnk this, he defends her if anyone says something even slightly negative even though she cheated on him. He once said, straight out, that she was much prettier than me (still hurts) He often made remarks about how thin I was and that I needed to put some weight on, the ex is quite large. He once said he had been discussing my medical conditions with her and I blew up about it and said he shouldn't have done that but he said she had a right to know as it might affect his kids (it really won't as I have barely any relationship with them) The thing is, I don't really understand if I'm worrying about nothing as I don't seem to understand things so well anymore or if there is a problem, then what do I do? I have tried to talk to him but it doesn't seem to come out roght as I get flustered and then he gets snappy and I just drop it. Any thoughts?

@sallyjane12345,
A few ideas. First off, document whatever you can. Not to play detective, but for your own sanity. You have memory issues (and I'm really sorry about that; I'm sure that can be rather frustrating) and so you need to keep records regarding anything said or done.

Your husband should not have gone into depth regarding your medical issues with his ex. Yes, the welfare and safety of his children are important, but if a doctor has cleared you and says you aren't a danger to yourself and others, then that is all she needs to know, period.

I suggest counseling or a support group for you, to get some help with these issues. Whether anything is going on or not, you need to be able to trust your memory and manage your emotions. Encourage your husband to come along with you, but please go alone if he will not.
