You may be right but now I want to hear your story!

  - once upon a time, roughly 18 years ago - They found a better name for my condition than "hypochondria." They renamed it atypical cystic fibrosis. It's a variation on a dread disease with a short life expectancy. I began getting healthier. My doctor expressed zero curiosity and scheduled me fewer appointments. Fast forward 18 years, the internet likes to claim I have Munchausen. In other words, I've come full circle from "crazy" to "legitimate medical condition" to another variation of "crazy" for the crime of rudely getting healthier when the world says "You can't do that!" - the end -
