Yes. I'm the worst. If anyone tells me they've had anything wrong with them within the last like week, usually 5 minutes after them telling me I'm already telling myself I've caught something off them. Then I trick myself into having the actual symptoms and ugh, like I really have a serious problem with it.

I know the feeling. Every little change I notice means I have some deadly infection
No, luckily. I could imagine in some cases, one could get extremely scared.
I know one particular hypochondriac that takes it to a whole other level. She's literally THE most annoying woman I know. She always has something 'wrong' and when I tell her about an occasional flu or illness I have she suddenly has 'that' too and hers is "so much more worse than mine".
Nope. I'm almost exactly he opposite I could have something horrifically wrong with me and convince myself it's nothing.
For example,
One Time
I found this lump on my leg, convinced myself it was nothing. Watched as it gradually got bigger and redder over the course of a couple days, and told myself it was probably just a bruise. Then two purple marks appeared side-by-side, and I figured they were fang marks from a spider, but thought it would go away. Eventually the whole lump turned purple and swollen and began discharging and even then I told myself that it would just stop eventually and it would be fine. It ended up running it's course and I was fine after a couple weeks, but It took me too long to accept the fact that it was something serious and that I had been bitten by some highly venomous spider I never did go to the doctor.
