I'm sorry you are hurting :(  Don't be a hero.  If you need pain meds, take them.  You don't get points for suffering.  I have passed 3 weeks with the headache from hell.  I am just getting used to hurting but I allow myself 2 or 3 pain pills a day if I need them.  My appointment with the pain clinic isn't until the 24th and until then I will do what I have to, with my doctor's support.  Pain meds are the only thing that are making things bearable at this point.  I took some Vicodin about an hour ago and it feels like I haven't even taken anything.  Just do what you have to do to feel better.

 I would but I was already getting to the point of addiction to them. I know I have addictive tendencies when it comes to the prescription pain meds like Percocet so I wean myself quickly. 

I may go find the tylenol tho.

I'm so sorry you still have that headache.

I know just what you mean. I like the percocet just a little too much myself. 3 weeks is about my max on that stuff too. But it sure does take the edge off the pain.
