HYPOCHONDRIASIS GALOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before I retire for the day, I must discuss with whom ever is interested the topic of HYPOCHONDRIASIS. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines hypochondria or rather hypochondriasis as "morbid concern about one's health especially when accompanied by delusions of physical disease". Due to the dreadful, bitter and frozen winter months people all over are coming down with some sort of bug. Some people are battling the sniffles and are convinced that they are battling an intense case of sinusitis. Other's like my dear friend Danielle believes that her slight whooping cough is surely chronic bronchitis. Being a frequent client of this sort of diagnosis, I immediately advise her to stop her life and seek professional aid. Quit school, quit work, quit late night drinking and deciding you are too drunk that you have to go home early. Who knows the slight whoop might turn into something more dramatic like tuberculosis or even a modern strand of the bubonic plague!! Quarantine yourself. Invest in the albuterol inhaler. Research a high strength steroid likeprednisone. I really hope that you have none of the above. Despite my deep empathy towards your condition, however, I ask you to please not call me under any circumstances to run to your apartment with Gracie's chicken noodle soup and a mango.
