Asked by Omonaijanimi12
A 17-year-old male presents to the healthcare provider convinced that he has stomach cancer despite having previously seen six different clinicians who confirm that no stomach pathology or cancer is present. This patient believes this because he occasionally hears his stomach “roar and grumble,” and the sounds are concerning to him. How long must symptoms be present for a patient to be diagnosed with the likely presenting psychiatric disorder?
