Could the general anesthesia have been or included scopolamine? This is a drug commonly used during labor. It does not dull the pain with much effectiveness, BUT the patient can't REMEMBER the pain. Its effects might be argued (by me, but also others!) as rather anti-female. It actually meanders down the same path as the tree-falling-in-the-forest: even if the patient was in agony, if she can't remember it, was there any pain?? Anyhow, if the patient is particularly sensitive or had an bit of an overdose, I'd think it might have a significant effect on memory, even after the patient was "awake."
