    I found this on Scotlands NHS web pages and also on an Australian clinics website.
    Anyone know how it 'works'?

    How on earth am I supposed to rank 20 symptoms manually?!

    And the question on the bottom needs a wider scale:
    How do you feel today on a scale of 1 to 10? (10 = terrific, 1 = totally bedridden)
    Totally bedridden = lower end of severe. Very severe can be worse.

    I have no idea what this is supposed to be used for. I’d say FUNCAP should replace this.

    I don’t like that wording “terrific > bedridden” an emotion vs a physical disability, nice. Thanks.
