I had a somatic variant.. for some reason I couldn't operate my left fingers[0]. I'd type and all of a sudden signals would jam and nothing would move. I had moments in life where my hand got bruised, or frozen and I couldn't 'use' it but I could still feel it. Something in my brain was still there. But the last time it felt like my brain could not find the fingers, it left a void which felt like a silent death. I wonder if people suffering hemi/quadriplegia or any form of handicap have that sensation.. I hope not it's difficult to bear.

Thanks for asking. Things were too transient for me to seek neurologists. It could be very disturbed for two weeks and slightly come back a few days... Most GP thought I was exaggerating so I gave up.
Right now, it's somehow back. I don't operate keyboard at the same speed as I used to but I have normal finger sensations (I can sequence fine and subtle finger patterns without brain freeze, which is what made me feel so bad before). I assume it's mostly due to bike commute strengthening my cardiovascular system and brain blood flow (or maybe it's something different.. I have no scientific data)
I wish I had the input of a neurologist though.. I do have to see one next month but for something totally unrelated (dysmorphic hallucinations) I may ask her/him just in case if there's enough time.
