I love people smoking in space. I think it's pretty awesome- it's just so crazy. Like Doc Kottel on BSG. Hey, no dumber than artificial gravity and no seat belts.
On the immune front, as a life long victim of heinous colds etc, sometimes you need to put everything on the back burner for a while and concentrate on building up the immune system. Lots of rest, healthy food, little stress. Oh, you can do that right now? Hm. Well, lately, when I know I'll be facing cats etc, I do a thing called "immune system boot camp" (by me. No one else would say anything that dorky.) Which also involves plenty of sleep leading up the event, and good food, and drinking lots of Airborne (which is expensive but effective; NB, "pink grapefruit" is by far the least odious flavor). Also lots of loratadine and nasalchrom in advance, but that won't help you.
Point is, making a concerted effort to help your immune system, with rest and substances, really can turn it around.
/preaching. Smooches- I will try to call again next weekend.
