Yeah, it was Propofol and we had the Michael Jackson conversation. Propofol also has an amnesia effect which kind of made me mad knowing that I might have been in pain and conscious and just forgot about it... but the more I thought about it the more I figured I wouldn't want to remember it anyway.
