Interviewer instructions
Interviewer to read: I would like to review the different functions of your body. When answering these questions, I would like you to think about the last 30 days/ month, taking both good and bad days into account.
When I ask about difficulty, I would like you to consider how much difficulty you have had, on an average, in the past one month, while doing the activity in the way that you usually do it. By difficulty, I mean requiring increased effort, discomfort or pain, slowness or changes in the way you do the activity. Please answer this question taking into account any assistance you have available (answer this question the difficulty you might have when you do it without assistance)
