I have witnessed the perplexity and difficulty of such men, and they have been happy to apply to the scientific practitioner who knew better. You cannot be too minute in your diagnosis of the general character of the disease, and especially to distinguish of what variety the affection is--whether one of strength or weakness, which will require patience. Your judgment when formed of what is to happen is called "prognosis." To make this correctly and accurately, diagnosis is ...
