Someone who is really quite well, but with any sniffle or funny spot, they think they are dying of cancer/bird flu/aids. Or any other disease/s.
A good example is the guy in the movie Bandits. He listens to tapes of the definitions of illnesses to calm himself down.

"Omg, look at this freckle! Its kinda big, eh? Do you think its skin cancer?"
"Its dirt, dude. You're sucha hypochondriac!"

Get the Hypochondriac mug.A person who, upon watching an episode of House, is convinced they have the same disease as the main patient from that episode.
Sometimes if severe enough, said person will go to the doctor the next day expecting Gregory House to come into the office and tell them they are dying.

Get the House Hypochondriac mug.A condition suffered by a person who hears another person mention an illness of which they suffer and is determined to out-suffer that person.

Mary: I've got one too,I think it might be a tumor.

Get the hyperchondria mug.One who spends excessive amounts of time online googling symptoms so he/she can diagnose his/her self with medical conditions/ailments.
Example of a hypochondri-googler: I stayed up all night googling bothersome medical symptoms and am now worried that I may drop my head to my desk causing possible further medical conditions such as a concussion, coma and the like. I’ll have to find energy to google that.

Get the hypochondri-googler mug.Hyperchondria is the stubborn belief that one is healthy even when there is medical evidence to support the presence of an illness or symptoms indicating one has such an illness.
Tim's hyperchondria was so blatant, he would not even acknowledge that his gangrenous wound was infected. He said he was perfectly healthy instead.
