Interviewer instructions
You are required to tick the appropriate box for the chronic illness or chronic illnesses affecting the respondent. A chronic illness is defined as a prolonged or long continued illness for which no readily available cure exists. However, treatment can be used to control the symptoms of the illness. Multiple responses may be ticked for a person.

It is important to note that these broad definitions are used for the sole purpose of clarifying concepts for you. Do not attempt to diagnose. Use the responses given by respondents, which they would have obtained from a Medical Doctor. NOTE: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a new type of illness associated with the prolonged use of a computer or type-writer keyboard.
