    As opposed to listing DSM-IV (309.8)* symptoms I am providing a link to a patient information sheet. It contains symptoms but also explains diagnostic considerations, the various manifestations and possible treatment interventions.

    Patient Info Sheet

    Another outline containing symptoms is provided by Veterans Affairs at:

    US Veterans Administration, PTSD

    Not sure how much you are interested in reading but here is an additional article dealing with the diagnostic complexity.

    American Journal of Psychiatry Chu (2010)

    If this doesn't fully address your needs feel free to ask any other questions in clarification.
