"suffer" is probably not the best word for sicknesses that are chronic and not too serious. "I have high blood pressure." is more natural than "I suffer from high blood pressure." "suffer with" is fine, but I'd be more likely to use "from" for maladies. I'm suffering with these new forms. The old ones were so much easier to fill out. (An exaggerated way to say "I am having trouble". Not 'suffering from" here)

Additional to Mark's comments. see this: https://www.quora.com/Which-is-correct-suffer-with-or-suffer-from I rarely recommend sites like quora or stack exchange but these answers are I Think fairly accurate and the first answer on the site gives a good description in my opinion. I do not know what linguists and grammarians would say.

When you are indicating what it is you are actually suffering from e.g. disease, condition, state. He suffers from Diabetes. My brother suffered from depression his whole life. He is suffering from a groin injury. You can use it without from when you are talking about a general situation. This can be used as a transitive or intransitive verb. Examples: 1. My football team suffered a humiliating defeat yesterday in the FA Cup Final. 2. If you break the law, you will suffer the consequences. 3. It is the animals who suffer most when firecrackers are permitted. Other expressions without "from" are: suffer defeat, suffer humiliation, suffer damage, suffer a setback Should you require any further assistance with an English course of study please do not hesitate to contact me for a unique study plan.
