I was in a crash and was given a paralyzing drug because i was fighting so hard. it caused amnesia of the whole day. any idea what it might have been?

Versed: Will sedate you but not paralyze you. It causes amnesia. Succinylcholine or rocuroium may given to paralyze you for intubation and surgery. They don't cause amnesia.
