The process is the same, whichever method is used.

Step 1: List all Possible Causes

We begin by identifying the disease conditions which have "dark areas under eyes" as a symptom. Here are six possibilities:

Liver Congestion
Food Allergies
Parasite Infection
Allergic Tension
Kidney Disease
Lack Of Sleep

Step 2: Build a Symptom Checklist

We then identify all possible symptoms and risk factors of each possible cause, and check the ones that apply:

heroin/morphine use

moderate meal-induced pain

discomfort caused by mold/mustiness

refined white flour consumption

possibly jaundiced skin

no desire to recover from alcoholism

chronic productive cough

intolerance of both garlic and onion

forgetting dreams

undigested fat in stools

significant right lumbar pain

frequent postprandial somnolence

... and more than 110 others

Step 3: Rule Out or Confirm each Possible Cause

A differential diagnosis of your symptoms and risk factors finds the likely cause of dark areas under eyes:

Cause	Probability	Status
Kidney Disease	96%	Confirm
Allergic Tension	70%	Possible
Lack Of Sleep	19%	Unlikely
Food Allergies	1%	Ruled out
Liver Congestion	1%	Ruled out
Parasite Infection	0%	Ruled out
