4. Which statement best reflects changes in memory, language, or everyday thinking?
I have not noticed an unexplained change beyond my usual occasional lapses.
I notice minor lapses mainly during stress, poor sleep, or heavy demands, and they improve when those factors ease.
I repeatedly lose track of familiar steps, struggle for common words, or forget recent information in ways that affect my routine.
The change is rapidly worsening, leaves me disoriented in familiar settings, or suddenly prevents me from understanding or communicating normally.
5. Over recent weeks or months, how have headaches affected your routine?
I have not had an unexplained recurring or changing headache pattern.
Headaches are occasional, familiar, and do not meaningfully interrupt my routine.
Headaches recur or have changed enough that I cancel activities, rest unexpectedly, or use relief measures more often.
Headaches are rapidly worsening, repeatedly disabling, waking me with vomiting, or accompanied by a major new neurological change.
6. What pattern best describes any shaking, twitching, stiffness, or involuntary movement?
I have not noticed an unexplained movement change.
I have occasional brief twitching or shaking, often around fatigue or stress, without loss of function.
The movement recurs, is visible to others, or makes precise actions more difficult.
The movement is rapidly worsening, causes falls or injury, or prevents me from controlling part of my body normally.
7. Which statement best describes numbness, tingling, burning, or altered sensation?
I have not experienced unexplained altered sensation.
It occurs briefly in a familiar situation, such as after leaning on a limb, and clears completely.
It recurs without a clear positional cause or remains for extended periods.
It is spreading, worsening, paired with significant weakness, or interfering with safe movement or daily activities.
8. Have you experienced fainting, convulsions, or unexplained loss of awareness?
No, I have not experienced any of these.
I have felt close to fainting with a recognizable trigger, such as standing too quickly, without losing awareness.
I have fainted without a clear explanation or had recurring brief periods when I seemed to blank out.
I have had a first convulsive seizure, a seizure lasting about five minutes or more, repeated seizures, or failure to recover normally afterward.
9. How has your walking changed without an obvious short-term cause such as a recent minor injury?
I have not noticed an unexplained change in my walking.
I occasionally feel mildly unsteady but recover quickly and continue normally.
I repeatedly stumble, drag a foot, or need extra concentration to walk steadily.
My walking ability is rapidly worsening, I am falling, or I cannot walk as I normally can.
10. When a headache occurs, what accompanying pattern have you noticed?
I have not noticed recurring symptoms accompanying headaches.
I sometimes prefer a quieter or darker setting but can generally continue what I am doing.
I repeatedly develop substantial nausea or sensitivity to light or sound that interrupts normal activity.
I have had headache with prolonged confusion, fainting, seizure, fever and a stiff neck, or a new loss of movement, speech, or vision.

No unexplained change in hand strength or control.
Occasional awkwardness that is brief, infrequent, and not getting worse.
Recurring dropping, weakness, or loss of precision that makes some tasks harder.
Progressive or marked loss of hand function that prevents usual tasks or is rapidly worsening.
14. After an unusual spell, faint, or awareness gap, how do you typically recover?
I have not had an unexplained spell of this kind.
I feel briefly unsettled but remain oriented and return to normal quickly.
I am repeatedly confused, unusually exhausted, or unable to recall part of the event for a while afterward.
I remain severely confused, cannot be awakened normally, have trouble breathing, or develop a major new weakness or speech change.
15. Which headache pattern, if any, best matches your experience?
I have not had a severe, new, or notably changed headache.
I have had a familiar headache that builds gradually and responds as it usually does.
I have developed a new headache pattern or headaches that are becoming more intense or frequent.
