Medical - Medical: Health Care / patient survey | | Dutch term or phrase: "Lekker in zijn vel zitten" | Uit een lijst met uitspraken van chronisch zieke jongeren. Dit is de hele zin: "Soms *zit ik niet lekker in mijn vel* door mijn ziekte, maar ik probeer er niet teveel aan te denken."
I suggested "Sometimes *I don’t feel good* because of my disease(, but I try not to think about it too much.")
My client is not satisfied with this solution, she would prefer a "stronger" expression. Anyone? TIA! |

| Grading comment My client will not be able to make a choice until the end of August. I have made a (perhaps preliminary) choice instead. Buck's suggestion, however, also feels good ... Based on my client's decision, the glossary may be changed later. Thanks everyone for thinking along!
