[QUOTE="Alisonlg, post: 54267, member: 2894"] When a psychiatrist gives a diagnosis and says "rule out XYZ," what exactly does that mean? Does that mean they have absolutely ruled out that as a possible diagnosis (as if to say, "I've considered it and this kid doesn't have it!")? Does it mean, "I'm thinking this child [i]might[/i] have this, so I need to keep my eyes open and rule it out over time? Or what? [/QUOTE]
