I got fentanyl for mine... I don't think it causes amnesia, although I guess I can't tell. :P

They didn't actually tell me what they gave me, but I can make an educated guess because I have trouble remembering leaving recovery, talking to the Doctor, and going home. I have the general idea, but I can't remember specifics. I've had surgery before, so I know the general loopiness, but this was different.

Yeah, that's definitely not how I felt. I had the normal amount of forgetfulness and such, but entirely what I had expected. I was pretty aware by the time I got dressed and left.

You'd be surprised how often people wake up on the operating table. Anesthesiologists have really high malpractice insurance. They tend to err on the side of light gas.

Well, that's better than erring on the side of people not waking up!
