You must decide if you want to do good to your spouse by doing these things, apart from their demands or desires for you to do so. Some spouses argue over these issues. Some spouses don't care. Regardless, your decision to do good to you and your spouse must be apart from his or her demands or passivity.
It is your choice to take care of you and your spouse through taking care of your health.
