I don't know the name of the drugs but I actually had a doctor tell me, for future surgeries they could administer a drug that would cause short term memory loss. She implied it was a side effect of the drug that would "benefit me" to forget being wheeled into surgery and everything from that moment until I woke up again. I was stunned she thought that was normal and acceptable. She admitted she gets it done due to anxiety (not sure if she bullshitting but she definitely has signs of an anxious person).
The reason this was raised by the Dr was she thought I would get further surgery done (scopes etc for cancer checks), since my last surgery was medical negligence - forced oxygen mask / pinned down etc yet oxygen not on
Does anyone know of a compound that can cause this very selective amnesia? I'm SO curious...
Scopolamine I believe
I found this, very interesting...

Nice find. It explains it pretty well.
