Phantom pain is fascinating, I've never had the misfortune, but resolution produces something very much like it. Intense ringing in the ears combined with the feeling of a spike, and a sense alot like waking up with a charlie horse but..different, like your muscles are trying to bend in one direction while you will them in another. You can't breath, your skin is on fire, you vomit, it;s impossible to maintain your balance, and all of this produces a violent panic.
Nothing is actually harming you but no one can convince you as much.
(the general idea is that your brain is fouling the system, the intense discomfort a side effect of being incapable of determining which/what signals are valid - drugs help, lol - I got lucky, there are people whose condition is purely psychological, and that;s much more pernicious than the effects of physical trauma that heals)
