>> Here is what I do know. Nobody on this thread has presented enough information to categorically deny that it exists. So if I see people who appear to be doing that, I'm going to call them on it.
That's not how it works. The side that makes a claim has to show that it's real. Everyone else has every right to doubt the veracity of the claim until that time. Otherwise we'd all be endlessly bogged down in pointless conversations.
Anyone can come up with a wild, fantastical idea. That doesn't mean everyone else has to waste their time trying to disprove it.
Btw, if you've made such a big todo just because you don't get that, I'll be a bit upset 'cause I've been wasting my time here.

The idea that a person's physical symptoms might have a physical cause is not wild or fantastical. By Occam's Razor it is (absent other information) the most likely explanation.
That's not Occam's Razor. That's an egregious misunderstanding of Occam's Razor. The simplest explanation is indeed that those people suffer from anxiety, which is a very common condition that covers all their symptoms, as others have said. You need to make too many assumptions to be convinced of the contrary.
