I think if you are already sick I would stay away from it for a lil while... Ive had strep throat a few times and when I had it in the past I would keep smokin... it would never get better, but when I quit for a few days, I would heal pretty fast. Im just saying as far as respiratory illnesses go....
But I always roll a fatty and smoke it up for any other illness...ie. nausea, headache.

In my experience, it certainly takes the symptoms away, but the illness might last longer, since you're stressing your body.

I smoke if I'm nauseous, otherwise I just down a bottle of Robitussin. Don't get me wrong though, it has the same problem I stated above.

You could smoke during the entire time until your body fights it off.. you'd be sick for longer, but the only "side effect" would be that you're high.
