Nobody has been severed twice before because nobody could heal it until now. I know being severed is VERY painful (physically). Then the emotional problems stem from the fact that you have to start coping with the fact that you can never embrace the source again.
I think largely the emotional problems could be skipped over if you knew you were about to be healed again. Before, being severed was a hopeless situation. Especially if the wait isn't long. For example; Siuan travels to the black tower to try to regain her full strength. They sever her only moments before they heal her back to full potential. The pain is excrutiating, but lasts only an instant. In moments it's all over. A small price to pay for that much power...
Just playing Devil's advocate here. Keep 'em coming.

They might still have the emotional problems, as no one has tried being healed twice. The second healing might fail, which would cause even greater emotional pain.
And I like a good debate, I got no problems with you playing Devil's advocate.
I'm not strange. I'm normal. Everyone else is strange.
Oosta!
Never underestimate the power of the nerd!
Just for fun... Siuan's ability in the power...

That probably depends on if you think of severing as happening always at a single point.

In theory, it seems possible.

I think so. Esp. with Eldrene, Lews Therin and what we learned from Elayne's "unravelling" incident

Robert Jordan once said it may be used as a plot point.

I'd like to see them re-healed. It would be a good way to prove to the AS that men are equal
