    I would be more concerned about phantom pain.

    Sure, your fried receptors are not firing anymore; but your head may interpret the absence of any sensory input as pain.

      From an evolutionary standpoint I can see how that would be beneficial, which is why those people that don’t feel pain at all hurt themselves badly as kids, but it would be nice to lose an arm and orgasm every time my brain decided to do inventory.
