Mrs. Borhoquez is suffering from hypochondriasis. This is a mental disorder in which the person affected feels as if every minor symptom is a sign of something larger, and that they are or will be diagnosed with a serious illness soon. While this disease in itself is not extremely serious, the amount of anxiety it can cause could cause serious issues (including homicidal and suicidal tendencies) for the hypochondriac.

When leptin reaches the brain, it gives your body a feeling of fullness so that you will not want to continue eating. Individuals with leptin resistance, where the leptin hormone signals are not received as they should be, are often overweight because they do not have the same brain signals telling them that their body is full.</span>
