"Bollockitis" I can also see interpreted as "Bull$h¡titis".
Not what was meant at all.
From post above by "Polly" :
"Bollockitis: a made-up term for any random degrading disease. Probably made up by Andy on the spot, but could be made up by you tomorrow, "bollocks" as a prefix is like that, eg. bollockology, bollockopedia, bollocktastic, as is -itis as a suffix, eg. hungoveritis, idiotitis, headitis".
All there is to it, in a nutshell.
