Weight gain after age 18 years in women and after age 20 years in men also increases the risk of type 2 diabetes.
The Nurses’ Health Study, compared women with stable weight (those who gained or lost <5 kg) after the age of 18 years to women who gained weight. Those who had gained 5–8 kg had a relative risk of diabetes of 1.9; this risk increased to 2.7 for women who gained 8–11 kg.

Fever is not a disease! It's a known fact that normal human body temperature is 98.6 F (37 C). If the temperature goes beyond that, then it's called fever. But one must not worry every time if there is a rise in the temperature.
Why?
The reason is that the immune system is designed to raise the temperature as a defense mechanism if there is an attack by a foreign body (such as bacteria). So body temperature may fluctuate between 97 and 100.4. But there is no need to worry.

You can but it is risky and not as useful. The reason is that vomiting due to excess alcohol is not de to gastrointestinal upset but due to irritation of the brain. I would instead advise you to drink only as much as you can tolerate.There is no global consensus on recommended maximum intake (or safe limits) of the drug alcohol. You should not probably drink more than one standard drink. Be safe. DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE.
