"If I'm not mistaken, I think smell and taste are connected..if one is affected I think the other is also reduced."
I'd probably choose those 2 to give up.
I realised how important touch was after 2nd spine surgery.
Was on crutches for 6 months because I literally couldn't feel when my leg was touching the ground.. |

Definitely smell I was cursed with a very sensitive nose combined with hatred for bad smells and any bad smell I notice well before anyone else and I ducking hate it feels like some kind of punishment so definitely smell I wouldn’t miss |

"Touch
Taste
Sight
Smell
Sound
If you have to give up one, which would it be?
There’s actually more than 5 but if I had to lose one it would be taste if I can keep smell I’d barely miss it "
I know there are more subtle ones but I can't remember which they are exactly (one tracks your body in motion or something like that), so stick with the big five. |

There's so many more than 5. Not sure what the obsession with these 5 is (I know that's what is taught in schools), but really it's very limiting to our understanding of how we experience ourselves and the world around us. |

"QI did a whole thing on all the other senses. I can remember sense of space, orientation, heat, air pressure and lots more. Was it 27 senses in total according to Sandi? "
More even... equilibrium, direction; you could include sense of morality, wellbeing, responsibility, pride and whatnot. Then there's lots but I guess they get categorised in broader lexical fields. |
