  1. I'd imagine they'd eventually go "brain dead". With no neurotransmitters to pass on information, what use is the brain then? Oh yes, I know...Zombie Food : P

    Edit: Or you can run for President and have a high chance of winning : P


  2. Your neurons would be unable to communicate with each other, so you would die.

  3. depends on the neurotransmitter and its function. for example people who have myasthenia gravis do not respond to acetylcholine, which is the neurtransmitter for motor function so the person would have muslce weakness. if u lost neurotransmitters like dopamine you would get parkinsons disease like symptoms, if u lost histamine u would not have allergic reaction, if u lost serotonin you would have disruption with your emotional behaviour and cycles such as the sleep cycle. if u lost noradrenalin you would have a problem with exercise and other stressful situations where u would be unable to increase your breathing rate and heart rate. so just depends on the function of the neurotransmitter u lose.

  4. If his/her  neuron failed to produce neurotransmitters he/she would lose ability for moving certain part of his/her body(that  this neuron connects with brain) or would lose ability to sensing (eg.ability to feel pain,touch,smell,hear...)

  5. he/she won't feel pain, his/her brain is dead, like zombie, haa
