Editing a Symptom

In order to edit a symptom, click on the Symptom name (text) inside the row's cell, as shown below. NOTE: There is a difference in selecting a symptom for editing (where the character to the left of the symptom name is the "" symbol) and selecting a symptom for deletion (where the character in the box to the left of the symptom name is the ">" symbol). For instructions on deleting a symptom, view Remove a Symptom.
