How to answer job interview question

by Lea
(Texas)

I have an interview for a job as a personal trainer. My previous (and only) employer in the fitness industry was as an aerobics instructor. I expect the interviewer to ask why I left my previous position and don't know how to answer that question. At my last position, I asked my supervisor for a month or two off because of painful joints and suspected rheumatoid arthritis. She was willing to give me the time, but shortly after decided to give my classes to another instructor. My final diagnosis was not RA and I'm perfectly healthy now, but how do I explain that in an interview without either sounding negative about my last employer or sounding like someone with a bunch of medical problems?
