and koi-unleashed can accept no responsibility for inferior attempts at following
these charts and / or erroneous interpretations of the charts or attempts
to align and compare( in a best fit scenario!) our descriptions of disease
symptoms with those the reader is experiencing; we accept readers aptitude
for understanding will vary greatly. While every effort has been made to make
this chart as accurate as possible, therefore, please use this chart, but
understand, it is at your own risk/discretion.
Important please read first before proceeding with the charts!
It is important to understand that the diagnosis chart
shown here is ONLY intended
as a guide and only intended to point the user in the right
general direction. It is NOT a definitive
device, although every effort has been made to make this chart accurate and
useful.
Although accuracy was deemed to be essential when developing
the chart, the chart can never be 100% successful due to variations in symptoms,
this would be largely due to the fact that pathological symptoms in all diseases
can manifest themselves in more ways than we have the space to describe and
allocate resources to.
Also it's worth bearing in mind that people's perception
of the descriptions of disease symptoms vary enormously.
Where ever possible, no matter where the chart eventually
points you to; the chart and its possible treatments; should be read in conjunction
with all available data both on this site and other sites and in books, for
full descriptions of the disease and symptoms and all available treatments
and dose rates, the chart does not make any recommendations on dose rates
or which of the many available treatments you should eventually choose. That
is your choice and yours alone, based on your circumstances.
At the end of the day if you have the slightest doubt
in what you appear to be treating and how to treat, please seek professional
advice.
Please start as near to the top left hand corner as you
can with your given symptoms and answer the questions and track the arrows
from any given reply to all possible answers
This chart may be printed off for your reference and
maybe you can laminate it,
You will have to tell the printer to print in landscape
as it contains two sides, then trim either the bottom of each sheet to fit,
then tape together with clear tape then if you can laminate the final chart.
I hope you find this chart of real use in the future.
