3. Diarrhea/Gastroenteritis
Some of the most googled questions are how to fake a stomach bug to a doctor or how to fake diarrhea, the number three on our list of easiest illnesses to fake to a doctor. It couldn’t be more simple, really. Just complain about the usual symptoms: diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Don’t forget to mention lack of energy, and dehydration (in which case you could skip drinking water after your good night’s sleep). Try looking drained and lifeless. No doctor is going to ask for a stool sample, especially if you mention eating some sushi last night. As you can see, to get a sick note for diarrhea you just need a bit of acting skills.
