Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

It will be much easier to analyze the disability variables in this survey if you use the PR file, not the HR file. In the PR file, the cases are individuals. You have been using the HR file, in which there is one wide record for each household and there are separate values for each person, such as hdis2_01, hdis2_02, etc. In the PR file you just have hdis2 for each person.
