Sorry pal, you're gonna have to EARN those skill and stat points. As in, let the werebeast wail on you, sleep, and reload ad nauseam until you get a dream sequence.

Some may consider that retarded, however (it is). Personally, I would take a lot of quests from the fighter's guild that involve werebeasts and let it come naturally through fighting them normally.

Save right before you start fighting it, and keep killing/reloading until you get a dream.

I think ad nausiam is a latin saying meaning 'to do something repeatedly until it makes you ill'.

It might take a while.
Also make sure you aren't immune (or resistant) to disease :)

Which is particularly fitting for this thread, considering.

It's only a 0.6% chance, so it may take a while.

The best way I know how to do it is to go into the void, fall long enough to make and eat lunch (and for the falling damage to accumulate past the bounds of the variable that stores it), and hit Alt-F11, taking positive falling damage and becoming virtually invincible. Then find your werewolf friend, and literally let him munch on you for as long as you can stand to wait. There's a good possibility that by the time you finally run out of hit points, you'll have the disease.

There's a glitch sometimes where you fall into emptiness, and you can only get back by hitting ALT + F11. Or loading a safe.
