Hypochondriacal Drops
Hypochondriasis (sometimes referred to as health phobia or health anxiety) refers to excessive preoccupation or worry about having a serious illness. Many hypochondriacs focus on a particular symptom as the catalyst of their worrying, such as gastro-intestinal problems, palpitations or muscle fatigue. The duration of these symptoms and preoccupation is 6 months or longer. E.g. Globus hystericus is a sensation of having a lump in the throat when there is nothing there.
