Alright, here is the problem. I am playing on a mud called Aetolia where there are things called Illusions, these illusions are
nonexistent inflictions used to confuse your system. I am giving three examples of what they can look like. There are about
50 different possibilities for the two "fake" afflictions, so I can not use those as a dependable value. The goal is to be able to
read that it's an illusion and discard the two fake afflictions. Any ideas would be great, thank you.

Example 1:

H:100% M:97% E:99% W:99% B:68% XP:41% [csdb eb]
** Illusion **
Fake affliction.
Fake affliction.
H:100% M:97% E:99% W:99% B:68% XP:41% [csdb eb]

Example 2:

H:100% M:97% E:99% W:99% B:68% XP:41% [csdb eb]
** Illusion **
Fake affliction.

Example 3:

Change your triggers that capture illusions to put them into a pending variable instead of the variable you use to determine curing. Don't take immediate curing actions during those triggers.

Next is a simple trigger.
#TRIGGER {^~*~* Illusion ~*~*$} {Illusion=1}

Finally in your prompt trigger check the illusion state to determine if you should commit the pending afflictions to your curing system. Something like this:
