Has the part of the brain that deals with pain and pleasure been disabled as a result of Terri's heart attack?
"...Terri does react to painful stimuli. Intriguingly, her doctor testified he prescribes pain medication for her every month during the course of her menstrual period."

NO. I read that during her physical therapy, she found things painful, and moaned, when they did certain things, which lead them to do a bone scan and found bruised bones. So she clearly feels pain.
