I am sure this has been asked before but I am trying to reason it out in my head.  

What would happen to a person who stored health into a gold mind if they had access to investiture that healed them?   I doubt we would see a Miles hundred lives replica but I figure you could store far more than a normal gold ferring.  

If you had the 5th heightening making you pretty well immune to illness would you instead suffer injury?  Or would storing your health surpass that benefit and you would simply get sick as normal?  Would you be storing far more health before you feel the effects of storing than a normal gold ferring?  

If you found yourself as a squire with access to stormlight would the stormlight simply heal you as you stored until the stormlight ran out?   

I do imagine that storing past your naturally safe levels could end up pretty badly if something were to happen to the investiture that you use to fuel faster filling.

I would think that if someone with the 5th heightening were to store f-gold it would override the heightening. It seems to me that based on the books, storing f-gold somehow stops your immune system from responding, which is why Wayne gets sick when he stores it and can't heal. I would guess that 5th heightening strengthens your immune system somehow, but that doesn't stop it from sort of turning off.

 

I'm not sure that Stormlight heals sicknesses, but I would think that it does. I think we have only seen it heal wounds. I'm guessing it would work similarly though.

I think you can store more health if you have more health from other magic, at least to some degree - it would be like storing the extra strength from allomantic pewter into feruchemical pewter (which does work by WoB, though Compounding is better).

But *how* this would look, not sure. For the 5th Heightening, maybe your health would be as if you were at a lower Heightening while storing? Stormlight might get used up to restore the health lost to storing.
