There's a brilliant website called Archaic Medical Terms which I use all the time. :)

Medical terminology has changed over the years, and death certificates quite often included things that would seem very strange today!
The webmaster is also extremely helpful. If you have an illness or cause of death that doesn't appear on his lists, email him and he'll get back to you.
