What is it called when someone always has to have something medically wrong with them?
Factitious disorder imposed on self (FDDIS), previously called Munchausen syndrome, is a mental illness in which a person repeatedly and deliberately acts as if he or she has a physical or mental illness when, in fact, the person is not really sick. Sometimes these people go from doctor to doctor and undergo many unnecessary medical tests, procedures, and surgeries.
