SolderSolder comes with flux in it, which used to be rosin based... smells nice-ish but turns to acid in your lungs - and that's what's making you sneeze. There's no lead vapour.
Ditch it and get some fresh solder with a modern flux and you'll be fine. (Don't care what they say about lead-free being more eco-friendly, it's still crap, tin/lead is what you want!)
