You yourself has given answer in narration.yes you can smoke.As you are aware about the hazards of smoking and still want to smoke, it's totally your life and you can live whatever the way you like.If you can take food and liquid normally now, you can restart smoking.
But one thing which I can't resist to tell that you are only 22, your future is long way and career is just going to on the way.For your family just think and stop smoking.If you cant quit due to stress, you can take professional help.
