Hiya Angel,
From what i hear, it is normal for high anxiety and such to cause TEMPORARY problems with memore like memory lapses and such. I have heard that when you are anxiety is high it is tougher to focus your thoughts and so you forget things more. So once your anxiety goes down it should be easier for you to start remembering things again because your mind won't be so cluttered with all your anxious thoughts.
Now that i have sais that i also want to let you know that I too have lapses in momory. When i have high anxiety i can put down my keys on the table and five minutes later i am looking for them not remembering where i put them. But i just take it as my mind is so preoccupied that it doesn't notice the rest. When i calm down this usually goes away.
Anyway, hang in there. And if you want to have this checked out you should. When something bothers me that much i have it checked out, i tell myself it is my health my choice and nobody can say a darn thing about that.
Take care,
