I've stopped taking codeine cold turkey and I feel so bad. I've been working through it but. Constipation, stomach ache, aching legs, headache, just generally feeling miserable and gross ): I hope this doesn't last long

I'm no Medical expert.But seek help from one. Some things can't be done cold turkey.I would say that codeine,being an opiate is one of those.

Opiates are notorious for causing seizures if you suddenly stop taking them... I know this, but taking the risk because I'm just so desperate to not take them anymore
Perhaps make a dr. Appt to discuss the possibility of seizures and if there's anything they could give you to prevent them?
