[matthewriches73]

Hi i have been struggling to fix my character when because queasy , nausea, sick or the final stage fever can anyone help?

If antibiotics didn’t work it won’t work. Just don’t splash too much disinfectant on the wound, don’t undress the wound twice in one day or every day to splash disinfectant on the wound it will cause pain and anger. The anger mood I sometimes use to gauge how serious the injury is before it can be properly looked at. Disinfectant causes pains and anger.

This happens when...

too much bodies with flies around...go elsewhere / dispose of bodies
infection, normal one...disinfect the wound / take antibiotics
burnt food / poisoned food / tainted water...hope you havent taken too much or you will die
zombie infection...you are dead

Lemongrass will cure queasy/nausea. If it doesn't go away or comes back, eat more lemongrass.

Common Mallow will reduce fever, I think. There's no pill equivalent in the game for this, now that I think about it. NSAID's are pretty common over the counter. Maybe one like Ibuprofen should be added, or whatever the generic equivalent of that would be.

Aspirin

im pretty sure when you are queasy its because you are gonna turn into a zomboid, and you might as well pack it in cowboy

Yeah, if it isn't bodies causing the issue then it is likely that you have been infected.

What happens if you use the debug mode to completely heal yourself? Does the actual sickness go away, or does things like Bitten still exist, but you are sort of healed, so you are permanently weak? The body damage is healed, but are you forever sick?

You might of consumed tainted water without realising. If you go Iron gut trait you can drink tainted water and eat stale food without getting poisoned. I

If i recall well actually it is the moodlet prior of getting fever as well.
So if you take antibiotics when you get it, and you are sure you did not get the KNOX infection then you can avoid fever, or reduce its length big time.
If it is just FEVER and not zombification, FEVER will kill you fast, what you should do is "sleept it off" use sleeping pills to sleep, and whenever your char is awake eat up to full, then go to sleep. Rinse and repeat and in about 3-4 days the fever should disappear. Or your character dies:P You can still take antibiotics it will reduce the length of fever. (But it is a waste now actually.)
Other option, is to again eat as much as possible but not to full, cuz then you cant drink alcohol, then drink a bottle of wine/whisky/beer, basicly any kind of alcohol, wait till MAX tiredness hits and sleep. Then when your char wakes up again drink a bottle of something, so you get sleepy again and sleep. Again three-four days later it should disappear.

Any time you think your character will develop a fever, MAKE A BACKUP SAVE OF YOUR GAME. It is not that easy to deal with fever. So knowing when to do what is crucial. And if you miss out one step, your character dies. So it is a very good way to keep a save before fever, in order to learn the mechanisms to deal with it. (Fever death thus is different from other deaths, because most folks die not knowing what to do systemwise.)

Disregarding the fact you just necro'd a 2 years old topic just for this, the answer is: depends.

If you what mean by "completely heal yourself" is using god mode, yes. The zombie infection will be cured, you will turn into your ideal weight, no wounds, no illness, and so on.

If you just remove the wound from your limbs using the health panel cheat, no. Illnesses and Knox infection are governed by different parameters. You need to use god mode or remove the condition(s) through debug mode's player status menu.

The game changes too much in two years for any previous necro'ed posts to be still relevant at all.
