    Lots of people want to have or claim to have rare medical conditions. It gives then something to do/talk about.

      Claim to have, sure. But actually have, probably few, at least until that have to start dealing with the condition.

        Actively seek treatment, going from doc to doc until they find one that will perform a procedure.
