'Hypochondriac' is the scientific name attached to people who suffer under the delusion that 'if there's a disease/ailment known to man, they have it'. It differs from someone who likes to give 'pity-parties' for themselves and complain to anyone who will listen in that it is an obsessive fear/belief that they are always ill with some imagined sickness; and that any given symptom (no matter how benign) they may have which correlates to a single symptom of a particular ailment, is all it takes to convince them that they have it.
