Worse than that, if you lost your sense of touch you would bite through your tongue because you couldn't tell where it was, and burn your hands and break your toes without noticing and get gangrene, and be unable to do any personal hygiene whatsoever properly - all the things that happen to people with leprosy.

I don't know what I would choose. My hearing is nearly useless in a crowd, but I wouldn't want to lose music. I couldn't lose sight because I would be unable to do anything, likewise touch. I like tasting my food a lot, but smell is also important so I can tell when something is unsafe to eat, or when there's a gas leak or a fire. I think I would lose taste because it's the least dangerous.
