I stepped on a polymorph trap on Medusa's level with polymorph control, and chose to polymorph into a vampire lord. After dispatching Medusa, I broke Perseus's statue and found the shield of reflection. This should have allowed me to swap out my amulet of reflection for an amulet of life saving, but I discovered it didn't. I tried to wear the shield to uncurse it, but "You can't handle your shield of reflection." TDTTOE; vampires can't wear anything made of silver.
