handleyboy 2 Posted September 14, 2012 So i log in today on my 16th day of surviving head to stary for some loot and get hit by 1 zombie 1 time and i start to bleed i then bandage myself and everything is fine.I then after a few minutes start to hear some coughing and notice im still bleeding so i bandage myself again and it doesnt stop,i then realise after googling i have caught a virus or cold or something and need antibiotics to cure it.As i have never seen or even caught a virus/cold/whatever in the 80+ hours i have played and also never seen antibiotics is there anything i can do.I am at the moment stocking up on cooked meat in my tent because the prognosis does not look good.

Muncywolverine 236 Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) Antiboidics are rare and the only thing that will cure an infection (what you have). Your blood will drop to 6000 and stay there (even if you heal yourself, it will degrade back to 6000 again).You could try trading for one or use the medic thread : http://dayzmod.com/f...ce-we-can-help/OR, you could raid hospitals and try to find one yourself.P.S. - The infection sometimes glitches out and cures itself when you re-log, you could try that. But don't get your hopes up. Edited September 14, 2012 by Muncywolverine 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twitch13 49 Posted September 14, 2012 yeah the sickness mechanic is just plain stupid - i've found antibiotics a grand total of once. usually if you log in/out a few times you can bug it out and get rid of the sickness, and then you will stop losing blood and coughing. keep in mind that you'll only lose blood until 6k, at that point the blood loss will stop.
