    Cured a cold.

    Was white food and hunger the whole time. Changed clothes ( stripped naked, got new clothes then picked up my items out of my clothes

    Had no fireplace and was outside the entire time

    Did 2 animation cycles of the eating pills for both codeine and tetracyline

    Ate a can of food every 10 minutes

    and drank soda every 10 minutes

    coughing/sneezing went from 20 seconds to 3 and a half minutes per interval

    Then after another 10 or so minutes it went away and so did the sick symbol.

    My guess is to just survive (keep well fed and warm) 24-48h until it's over. Naturally if you find any medicine, try those.

    Could be that you should've waited like an hour or more. 30mins sounds bit short time to wait for the medicine doing it's tricks in game like DayZ.

    I had the cold for over 2 hours, The 30 minutes I'm referring to was spent in a house, by a fire basically non stop eating and drinking. At this point I'm under the impression it's a bug. Old mate in the above post state he fixed it in half an hour. The only thing he did that I didn't was change clothes, so unless that's the secret.

    People I play with have had the cold for days at this point. They've taken every drug they could find, stayed energized and hydrated..

    That's the only thing I've not tried.

    That and a full change of clothes, but I don't see that helping tbh.

    Sat away from my group for 30 minutes last night, by a fire, eating, drinking and smashing tetracyline and codeine pills. ( Codeine pills description says it cures the cold ) After 30 minutes I got bored of it and smashed my off switch. On the coast again.

    Posting for a friend.

    He closed his game like normal last night, Went to play today and it closes before it makes it to the menu screen, He sees the DayZ splash screen, then just crashes, no error message nothing, Game just closes. He's deleted and reinstalled, we've tried every method we can find on line.. Looking for suggestions, Anyone has any ideas that may help, Throw it in the thread. Seems a few people are having this issue, but I haven't found a fix.

    Send help.
