All of my questions are only hypothetical scenarios for my class assignment and will not be used to provide a diagnoses.

Answer 1

Thank you for this disclaimer.

However, you seem to be required to oversimplify determining illnesses.

I know of several instances in which a person presented a doctor with several symptoms. It took many tests and several doctors to accurately diagnose the disorder. In one case, the problem wasn't diagnosed until an autopsy was conducted.

Answer 2

Ms. Sue, yes I agree this assignment is over simplified and I am just trying my best to complete it based on the assignment instructions.

Thank you!
