From the available description it appears that you are developing forgetfulness which is progressive in nature. It might be due to following reasons 1. If you are older than 50 you might be having onset of neurodegeneration which may be responsible for this. 2. I am not aware about reason of prescription of phenytoin but if you started taking after some vascular event, that particular event may have caused damage to the area responsible with memory.
You are advised tom see a neurologist for complete assessment of memory and to find out the cause for the problem.
