Not related: This is not related to the use of pain killers. Can be a sirgn of anxiety, depression, or a process of normal aging.

I suggest: You discuss this with your internist. I do not believe the ankle fracture is related to your symptoms.

It is possible: There is a relationship...Or it is possible there is no relationship. Either way a 21 year old shold not be having memory issues. I would advise a consult with your internist. If you don't have one - get one.
