Woody Allen doesn't have hypochondria.

Health Woody Allen writes for the NYT about his non-hypochondria:
"WHEN The New York Times called, inquiring if I might pen a few words “from the horse’s mouth” about hypochondria, I confess I was taken aback. What light could I possibly shed on this type of crackpot behaviour since, contrary to popular belief, I am not a hypochondriac but a totally different genus of crackpot?

"What I am is an alarmist, which is in the same ballpark as the hypochondriac or, should I say, the same emergency room. Still there is a fundamental difference. I don’t experience imaginary maladies — my maladies are real."
Inevitably.
