The word “like” is a preposition, whose object is a noun, so it’s used for comparing noun-to-noun. The word “as” is a subordinating conjunction, which is followed by a full noun + verb clause, so it is used to compare events and actions.
We are talking about action, eliminate B and D
Defined is past tense, suffer verb can't be present continuous. Eliminate C and D
Between A and E,
Illness doesn't suffer, the patient does. To be in option A states ambiguity.
Answer is E

The answers A and E are still unclear for me.
Can we assume that "illness to be suffered by patient" and choose A? Passive voice.
