Just a note-to-self to look this up one day.

• Nagasako EM. Oaklander AL. Dworkin RH. Congenital insensitivity to pain: an update. [Review] [43 refs] [Journal Article. Review. Review, Tutorial] Pain. 101(3):213-9, 2003 Feb.

Reading this paper online shows that some of the thoughts about what i've written are slightly out of date, or at least mix'n'matches between indifference and insensitivity. But it's a work in progress. T 05:27, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Anesthesia

Would they still anesthetize you if you had to have surgery?--Sagittarian Milky Way 23:58, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Just watched an episode of House MD and noticed that the fictional character with CIP didn't need to be anesthetized while she underwent surgery. Since I'm too lazy to actually look this up, I'm gonna go on the ancient wisdom of the FOX network :P 202.76.151.153 12:54, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Just watched the same episode, They didnt anesthetize because the nitrous was causing some problem in her system, its my understanding that they usually would to prevent the patient from moving during the procedure--Beanpolekt 19:59, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
