Here's the context: He smiles much of the time; he is cooperative.  Symptom status revealed that he knew that George Bush was the current president and that Bill Clinton preceded him.  He denies hearing any voices..... 


Symptom sounds similar to System, Simple, etc., for this example.  Any input?

glissement, you won't get what you need. You need to limit your results to those that are relevant to your topic by adding associated terms to your search. Try the two words "glissement" and "knee" (without the quotes). There will be a lot of results in French, but even if you can't read French, you will be able to see that they are relevant to your topic. There are, however, a few that use "glissement" in an English context, which should give you more confidence. In any event, it's your initials on the report, so you handled it in the way that is most comfortable for you. I could be wrong, of course, but I suspect that it will turn out to be "glissement".

jumping up and down wanting to answer the question.  Otherwise you would have been paying more attention and know this.  This is very basic MT knowledge, not your opinion of what it should be.  Her answer is correct, not yours, and she explained it correctly.  Go back and read it again.  It is not the amount of packs in a year, no matter how many times you jump up and down yelling out your answer.

No, I said status means "with." Replace the word "status" with the word "with" since they mean the same thing and then you don't need a comma. :-)
Status
Subject: Status

Maybe you're getting a different vibe from the doc than I would. I would think that he meant decreasing performance in say- his activity level. If he meant decreasing performance status, he would actually be saying "decreasing performance condition." Really doesn't make much sense, even for an ESL, while a lot of them do put the noun before the adjective. :-) Status usually means at the present time where status post means the time afterwards. I wouldn't think he meant "decreasing performance status" meaning the condition of decreasing performance but rather "decreasing performance" with nausea, diarrhea, etc. It doesn't seem necessary for him to add the word "status" after "performance, where "decreasing performance," status, i.e, conditions of nausea, diarrhea, etc. would be necessary. But, the doc's ESL, so who really knows. :-)
