[Starship Troopers] What would it feel like having your brain removed by a brain bug?

I was thinking about it (ironically), and the conclusion I reached was that it would hurt from the impact, but if it didn't pierce a vital part of the brain you'd stay alive while it began sucking. It wouldn't hurt that much after the initial pierce, but your last few seconds before death would feel like your consciousness was being destroyed. Your memories, thoughts, it'd be literally ripped away, just for a few seconds, so you wouldn't even be able to process anything other than a sudden, gripping fear and sickening feeling in your stomach as everything you are gets digested.

Thoughts?

As soon as suction begins then all of your brain matter would displace due to pressure, destroying brain function. On top of that, the proboscis is WAY too big to enter the brain without hitting a vital spot. There's almost certainly no sensation after the initial trauma when the straw pierces the skull.
