That's just another example of how little we know about our brains and how they interact with our bodies. We're at the stage where we see stars in the sky, rotating every night, and think they go around the earth. Or see people getting sick around others and thinking they're cursed. DID offers us a rare insight into what's possible. When all your life you saw nothing but hills, the concept of a mountain is hard to wrap your mind around. Imagine your brain being able to shut down your pancreas. Then another part (personality) comes forward and your pancreas is suddenly fine. One minute you're diabetic, the other you're fine. This is an example of a mountain we have a hard time accepting.
