Hi, i have a question about the human brain: It's a fact that humans
can't feel their brains,I mean during brain surgery the surgeon can be
cutting the patients brain,and they will not feel anything.If this is
the case,then how is it that ppl who suffer from migraines/headaches
describe feeling pain in their heads? Also, if you read the reports of
drug expereinces on online websites, ppl using a variety of different
drugs report feeling stimulaion in their spinal cord and also their
brains?
Thanks for reading my post and i look forward to reading any
explanations to this paradox because i have struck by it for quite a
long time.Bye.
