Question
how many different hamster illnesses are there?  

Answer
There are pretty many hamster illnesses.  What types of symptoms is your hamster displaying? Please feel free to write me back and I will try to pinpoint what can be going on with your hamster.  If your hamster is not moving around, not eating/drinking, a veterinary visit may be in need.  Hamsters only have a life expectancy of 1-3 years, also, so symptoms can just be a sign of old age.
Please let me know how your hamster is behaving and we'll figure out what's going on.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Hilary
