Medical mal mots

Some medical conditions have names that are thoroughly unfair on the people who suffer from them.

• Dyslexia
• Lisp (formerly called sigmatism, which is even harsher)
• Stutter
• Rhotacism (my own complaint)
• Dysarthria (slurred speech as a neurological symptom)

I'm postponing adding "sesquipedaliophobia" until I've verified that it is an original medical word, and not one constructed for the sake of the irony.
