It could take ages to consider all of the most common medical conditions.. The reason being is many conditions seem to change overnight. For instance, HIV/AIDS used to be considered a rare condition, then around the 80′s and early 90′s it seemed to have a noticable increase.
Although we can’t tell you what doctors depict as being rare compared to common, we have comprised a list of some of the most widely diagnosed conditions. You do not have to be suffering from one of these conditions in order to view it as common. The term “common” is more leaning towards a wider percentage of people who do have these particular conditions.
Migraines- Unfortunately, we’ve all had to deal with a headache or two, however, minor headaches are not seen as a serious illness that you should rush to your doctor about. When the severity of the headaches escalate so high that they become a debilitating condition suffered on a regular basis, they are then referred to as migraines. In this case, it is recommended that you see a doctor.
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) – Diagnosis of ADHD has increased a great deal. This disorder yields symptoms such as: inability to concentrate, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. While this is extremely common in children and teens, adults may also suffer from ADHD, feeling more of a sense of restlessness than hyperactivity. ADHD treatment varies, though most often it is treated through medication.
Depression is a very common condition that more than 45% of Americans suffer. Most people experience depression throughout their lives in some way or another, and some cases can be much more severe than others. Some people are more prone to become depressed due to life circumstances or experiences, such as new mothers, war veterans, or someone who has recently lost a loved one.
Some other conditions you may be familiar with are the symptoms of allergy and asthma, as well as influenza, or the “flu.” Severe allergy and asthma conditions are usually treated through doctor-prescribed medications. Treating flu symptoms is generally easier, as it can often be tamed with over-the-counter medications.
Common medical conditions are just that—common. There is no need to panic about them, doctors have the way to treat you for a common medical problem down to a science, so no need to worry, you will be just fine.

First of all ….sorry to hear about your father passing.
Of course this can add to your stress but I really think your friends getting stuck in some sort medical drama while you're talking to him is a bit weird.
It sounds like they all have some medical condition that they're trying to one up each other on. Compare notes what doctors have you seen? I've got that condition also. Unfortunately they're feeding off each other’s problems. This is a circle that's probably a bit unbreakable. And to them since you probably don't have any problems you're a bit of an outcast.
It can certainly be boring listening to people complain about their problems or the other people encouraging them and supporting them. I would think also if your father passed from any kind of medical condition listing to these people would be very depressing.
I think I would get out of there and find new friends that want to talk about a more robust subject line.
