I've just tried to do the questionnaire, however, I'm confused. It's asked me about something I guess are "symptoms" (though not described as such: "
8. Over the last
two weeks, how often have you been bothered by any of the following problems? Please select your answer on the scale provided."), to which I answered I've been tired on a couple of days (which is because I've done large mileages on my bike.... but is this supposed to be related to my diabetes specifically...?)
Later on it says this: "
11. Please indicate how much you agree or disagree with the following statements about your current symptoms by selecting an option for each statement". What is this supposed to relate to? My answer to 8) (and 9) or whatever disease (Diabetes) I ticked for which I've not been asked about any "symptoms"? One of the questions here says "I'm afraid I will make my symptoms worse if I exercise" - so should my answer be: yes, I'm tired as I'd ridden a lot and if I do more it will be worse; or should it be no, it will bring down my blood sugar if it's high; or yes, I have low blood sugar so exercise is bad news; or can I select all 3 as it is presumably for the last 2 week period that was previously mentioned?
I guess you actually want answers to 8) and 9) that are specifically related to the health problem in question (vs my sporting and commuting activities), so I should remove my feeling tired answer and complete the questionnaire just considering diabetes? Am happy to complete it if you could clarify, though I think my answers may either be quite boring or otherwise confusing if I tell you exercise won't improve "feeling tired".
