Oh, wait, I didn't exactly give you ones that are deadly and unbeatable, I just gave you conditions that people are in that you can research further.
For instance, hemophiliacs cannot really be helped.
Their blood does not clot unless they are given something to make it clot.
A paper cut can be deadly, but I guess it can be beatable if they get to a hospital that can give the person the drugs they need.
Sun allergies are deadly, believe it or not.
It depends on the degrees of the sun and the illness, but in the book I read the girl was stuck in the sun for 2 hours and she couldn't get to shore so she died.
Cancer, if discovered in the early stages, can be beat, and it is in fact deadly, but it is visible, you can bleed randomly and I mentioned the other facts earlier.
If all of this isn't enough, let me know.

Cancer is a disease that's visible on the outside.
Reading Lurlene McDaniel, it depends on the disease but cancer gives signs such as black and blues. You're visibly tired and if u get treatment the skin becomes papery, you lose all body hair and are constantly weak and sick.
The name of the sun disease is scientifically and mostly commonly refereed to as Polymorphic Light Eruption and it is, in fact visible because the body becomes covered with huge red blisters, a bit like allergy but in a more severed way.
I would say inside diseases, besides mental ones must be ones involved or not involved with the immune system, because otherwise it would be visible.
I would say AIDS, which is not visible at all until the last stages, where I will spare you the details.
Heart Problems, because your arteries get clogged and that is not outwardly noticeable until you have a heart attack or chest pains.
I think also hemophiliacs have a disease that is not outwardly visible, only when they start to bleed and cannot stop.
Same with diabetes, a disease one can possess and not know because there aren't any physical signs besides the ones that happen when over-dosed.
I know, for infants there's curb death.
Urm, there are tumors, where there are inside pains like headaches but no outward, physical signs.
I know anorexia, unless you start to shed weight at a very heightened pace, is not visible in the first stages
Have I helped enough or do u need more?
Lemme know,
Paula.

This is for 'Tears of the Cherry Blossoms', for Sakura, isn't it?
Sorry, I can't say I know much about it really. Maybe an overdose of white blood cells, or a drop in them? The artery leading to the brain, there could be a blood clot just waiting to happen...I dunno. Go on the Internet. There's always going to be something there.

Actually, you've just covered about all mental diseases. Osteoperosis is one but it's not deadly, just very annoying and painful, i imagine. I also know of another one but I'm not sure if it's deadly. I saw it on Doc once and decided to research it up. It's called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CPRS) it's when you get an injury, after it heals physically, it still hurts because the nerves are sending messages to the brain that the pain's still there, and in many cases the pain becomes worse after the injury heals. Cancer is another one but it's pretty common. There's also another one, but I'm not sure if you'd be able to use it. (and i dunno the name) it's a birth disease, like an allergy to sunlight. Kids have to spend their entire lives indoors and away from light. they can't go outside to play ever because one day in the sun could kill them.

Just create enough details to make it sound realistic. Maybe you could research an actual disease and twist it around a little to suit your purposes. I'd recommend researching Cordia Perplexa Disease for ideas...just kidding...I just made that name up! Good luck!

Andrew's right. You could make something up and it'll seem plausible because of all the diseases that are still not known.

Hmmmm. That's a tough one. If you're trying to find out for something you're witing, maybe you could just make something up. I'm sure the US military has many diseases like that in their laboratories, just waiting to escape, so if you make one up, it may seem possible.
