Diuturnic / Chronic Illness flags
Diuturnic is a suffix for chronic illness and long lasting conditions.
The flags above are as follows
Diuturnic -> coming from the latin words Durus (meaning harsh, severe etc) and Diuturna or Diuturnum (meaning long lasting), this term is not meant to be a replacement use for chronic but to encompass all chronic conditions.
DolorDiuturnic / DoloTurnic -> the orange flag, representing chronic pain, dolor is Latin for pain. This includes all forms of chronic pain.
LangourDiuturnic / LangoTurnic -> the blue flag, coming from the Latin word Langour (meaning faintness, weakness, infirmity, feebleness, exhaustion), this term is meant to encompass all forms of chronic fatigue.
It is not required to use the created names to use the flags, you can simply call them alternative flags for chronic illness, pain and fatigue.
