The remaining neurons from the amputated limb still
send impulses to the brain which interprets them as if the
limb is still present.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus usually occurs before the age of
40 years. Insulin is not being produced, thus hyperglycaemia
is common and symptoms usually have a sudden onset.

c
Pain resulting from the damage or malfunction of nerve
fibres in the peripheral and/or central nervous system. The
nerve fibres could be located in the periphery or central
sections of the nervous system. The resulting pain is often
described as burning or pins and needles.

Injury at C6 would result in loss of all motor function
below the upper arms, loss of sensation below the clavicle,
but some arm and thumb sensation, no bladder or bowel
function. The phrenic nerve remains intact but the intercostal
muscles are non-functional.
