Vincent, My suggestion for contra-indications is not about building your solution, but as I understand it, its a medical necessity. In your case for example you say "No Sweating" this could be considered a "contra-indication", if all other diagnoses considered. The problem is the words "all other diagnoses considered", because we rarely do that. Its more like saying for this diagnoses the person "Must not sweat at all", it's not that you may not observe it, its that "if they are sweating" it is *not the current diagnosis*.
I know it sounds like they are the same thing, "a negative of a symptom is a contra indication", but as I understand it, this is not the case. Part of the issue is when you use search to find something, not finding it, is not a contra-indication, you need to find a statement that "it must not be so". Any way do what you will with my point.
