I have a very bad reaction to normal General Anesthetics and can be kept in recovery for a couple of hours whilst my readings stabalise so when I needed to go back into theatre soon after my emergency Appendectomy a couple of years ago they used Propofol on me.

It must have totally knocked me out because I can't remember a thing but I do remember coming round afterwards back in ICU and John saying that I seemed to be back on ICU only a very short time after he was informed I was out of theatre. I think they can apply different levels of dosage to vary the depth you are sedated and the length of time it works.

Add/
Having a read around the net it seems that Propofol can be used for conscious sedation with no memory of a procedure up to full sedation which I had.

Hopefully someone on here will be able to tell you their experience.
