Gods and Sickness Removal?

[Panda_Lord]

I was sacrificing creatures to improve my piety with my god. A wererat hit me, and sickened me. I continued to sacrifice creatures, and I noticed that on the same turn that I became "Very close" to my god, my sickness went away, with the message "Your health improves.". Is this just coincidence, or does becoming Very Close remove sickness?

"Your health improves" is just the message displayed when you recover from sickness. It was coincidence.

Ehmm.. I seem to remember very very clearly although not perfectly that being on a certain status with your god causes him to heal sickness if you Offer something.

It was coincidence.

Nope, your deity will cure sickness if you sacrifice smth at the altar having high piety.
