Solution

The correct option is A Hyperchondria
Hypochondria is often characterized by fears that minor bodily or mental symptoms may indicate a serious illness, constant self-examination and self-diagnosis, and a preoccupation with one's body. Many individuals with hypochondriasis express doubt and disbelief in the doctors' diagnosis and report that doctors’ reassurance about an absence of a serious medical condition is unconvincing or short-lasting.
So the correct answer is 'Hyperchondria'.
