But I'm going to give you some food for thought.
Global anesthesia has an interesting effect. It erases your memory while you're under it.
In one particular instance, I vividly remember an operation I went under for.
I was told I woke up, and was asked some very simple questions. I was told I answered them.
I say, "I was told," because I do not remember waking up from the anesthesia until 30 minutes later. I was still under its effects when it woke up and had forgotten waking up from it. I had no memory at all of waking up prior to this or being asked anything. Global anesthesia erases your memory of the event. It is entirely possible that, while under the anesthesia, you are paralyzed, but awake, and conscious, but you never remember it. That it doesn't numb the pain at all. You just never remember it happening.
No. You don't own your thoughts. You think you own your thoughts. But that is your brain remembering your thoughts. And as we already know: Memory is not absolute.
