How is my pronunciation?
I am feeling quite unwell. I had a fever this morning, but it subsided after taking medication at noon. However, I am currently experiencing weakness and chills throughout my body. Despite this, I still have two assignments that must be completed tonight.

Your pronunciation is good, just a few things to work on.
R/L is getting a bit confused in many words. Maybe you can find some YouTube videos which help explain the pronunciation difference. (For example, in the word "feeling" and "chills")
"subsided" sounded like "sursid" - check the pronunciation of this word
"assignments" sounded like "assertments"
You take a pause after the word 'experiencing.' This sounds somewhat unnatural to a native English speaker. 'Weakness and chills' are the direct object of what you are 'experiencing' so since these concepts are closely related we don't take a pause between them. Generally there should not be a pause between the verb and direct object, except maybe if you are trying to remember/recall what the direct object is.

Here are your problem words from that sentence: quite, subsided, noon, currently, assignments, chills. I think people would understand some of these regardless of the pronunciation based on context clues, but I think "subsided" and "assignment" were too far off to be understood. I hope this helps. :)
