Alternatively, you can take a regular tylenol to ease off the acetaminophen if you have CT'd off the opiate combo drug.

I had a headache like that once, then I looked in the mirror and found a big zit there! LoL!  (just joking)

If you are tapering off something that has acetaminophen in it,  the "tylenol headache" is a very common symptom.  It will go away in a couple-few days.

Probably w/d..but if you are reading alot..that could compund the problem. Headaches are a common symptom of w/d. Can you take Ibuprophen, Aleve, something like that? Soak a washcloth in hot water..put on forehead..may help. Are you drinnking lots of fluids? Dehydration can be a cause of headaches..so water, gatorade..is key. Also, making sure you are getting some food (vitamins) in you. Hope this helps a bit..and that you feel better very soon. Congratulations on Day ^..you are almost THERE!
