Why am I still sick?
I got sick all the sudden and I don't know what caused it. It nearly got me killed but I managed to tough through it by eating and drinking enough. I am still sick, and I found both charcoal tablets and vitamins, but neither has cured my sickness. I keep puking when I eat or drink too much even though I took both pills.

My character is coughing, sneezing, and grunting. It isn't wound infection as I am not losing health.

Why won't the sickness go away? What do I have??

Cold. You can get colds by being blue temp for even short periods of time if yo ulet yoru self get wet and do not wring or dry your clothing. Also if you have a cold then drink from your water bottle you may need to disinfect it again.

Vitamins, prevent and make your immune system stronger,
they do not cure. Pop them all the time, eat the whole bottle
but not all at once, the effect does not "stack".
Charcoal is for food poisoning only. Pain meds won't help either.
You need the Red pills.. can't remember what they are called..
Not needed them for a long time.

Tetracyclin.

Or just eat and drink in small amounts untill you get to totally full drin and food, which is not just full apple but is when you see full apple and full bottle and the chevrons no longer show a triple up indicatoin when you eat. They ill just flicker above and below the apple to indicate that you are not at 100%. The apple ad bottle show full when you are a little over 50% satiated so to get to the 100% stage you need to eat and drink far more and if you are doing so with small bites to avoid dying due to sickness that can take you a good hour or sitting in an area with a good supply of food and drink on hand.

Ahh, there is a bike mod for that, so then you can do tetracyclin, while cycling.

if you have tried every medicine possible, it's likely that you need to try the lead solution by pressing f11 and I am not joking. I took every possible medicine there is and nothing worked. the sickness kept coming back after going away. Two minutes I'd be fine and then at it again.

Sounds like you have a cold and salmonella!
- cold cough, sneeze, fever
- Salmonella, puke, grunt
Your best bet is to find some tetracycline and charcoal pills from a hospital. Charcoal pills may cure the salmonella. vitamin pills will increase immunity. Remember only vitamins stack with other pills. so you cant take tetra & charcoal at the same time

Only take small amounts of water and food at a time to avoid puking. If you can keep food and water bars white for higher immunity.

.....and if you are wearing a mask throw it away immediately! It will re-infect you

Vitamins can cure both salmonella and cholera, but you have to keep taking about 4 pills after you see the sickness go away, otherwise it can come back again and again.
Charcoal works faster, but if you don't have that..
I think i had to use like 13 vitamins in a row to fully cure salmonella, got it from eating with bloody hands.

I walked around with Salmonella a while, and you eventually do get fever with that as well. fever, dehydration, blurry vision and sounds like your getting stung by a bee.

I clearly stated I had charcoal tabs which did not help. I did keep taking vitamins, and eventually whatever sickness I had did go away. I survived.

Right, you were coughing and sneezing. Then that would be a cold or the flu, charcoal has no effect against that.
