Absolutely; don't ramble, don't volunteer any information you don't have to and never hypothesise. I gave my two answers to the theoretical ones a laywer might ask fuller than i would for the sake of brevity here.
In reality my answer to both would have been 'no' and then leave it up to the lawyer to prove otherwise. I don't have to give a medical opinion.
