# The questionnaire

import { Symptoms } from "@/components/react/PostDiveScreens";

The questionnaire covers what a dive computer cannot record. Four steps ask:
**Feel**, **The dive**, **You** and **Next 24h**, symptom checks first.

## The symptom checks

Nine checks, each yes or no, with **None of these — I feel fine** as an explicit
answer:

- Any unusual joint or limb pain (elbows, shoulders, knees)?
- Any skin itching, rash, or a mottled / marbled appearance?
- Unusual, disproportionate tiredness after this dive?
- Any numbness, tingling, or "pins and needles"?
- Any muscle weakness, clumsiness, or difficulty moving a limb?
- Any dizziness, vertigo, ringing ears, or hearing change?
- Any confusion, trouble concentrating, or slurred speech?
- Any cough, chest pain behind the breastbone, or breathlessness?
- Any band-like torso pain, trouble urinating, or leg weakness?

The last six are marked **Serious**. Report anything and a further question
appears: how long after surfacing it began. Joint pain, skin signs and fatigue
also ask how severe: **Barely noticeable**, **Mild**, **Moderate**, **Severe**,
**Disabling**.

## If you report one

A banner appears and stays, listing what you reported and when it began. A
**serious** symptom gives, verbatim:

> **You reported a symptom that can indicate decompression illness.**
> Do not dismiss it, even if it seems mild or is fading. Breathe 100% oxygen,
> stay still, and contact a dive physician or DAN now.
>
> Divers Alert Network (24h): +1-919-684-9111

A milder one gives:

> **You reported a possible post-dive symptom.**
> Keep monitoring how you feel. If it worsens or a neurological sign appears,
> breathe 100% oxygen and seek dive-medical advice.

> **Danger**
>
> Nothing in DiveLogic can tell you whether you have decompression sickness. It
> cannot rule it in and it cannot rule it out, and neither a clean adherence score
> nor a conservative reading means it is impossible. If you have a symptom, act on
> the symptom and get it assessed by someone qualified to assess it.

## What else it asks

- **The dive**: ascent control, stops, gas switches, sawtoothing, setpoint
  stability, CNS, whether ppO₂ passed 1.6 bar, OTU, oxygen-toxicity signs,
  warmth, exertion.
- **You**: how you felt going in, rest, hydration, PFO, previous decompression
  sickness, alcohol in the twelve hours before, dives today, consecutive days,
  reverse profiles.
- **Next 24h**: hours until flying or driving to altitude, strenuous exercise,
  hot shower, sauna or hot tub.

Most answers are five-point scales in plain language. Questions your dive data
answers appear instead under **Answered from your dive data**, each with a
**Change** control.

The scored answers give a decompression-stress reading out of 100:
**Conservative** below 25, **Moderate** 25 to 54, **Provocative** 55 and above.
A symptom flag is listed first.
