TMJ, Torticollis, Vomiting, Nausea And Headache Post Taking Diazepam And Codeine. Taken Paracetamol. Remedy?
I suffer from tmj already and I was given diazepam and codeine medication for torticollis by the hopsital a couple of days ago. since taking them I haven t been able to keep anything down. last night i didn t take any because of the sickness but woke up this mornng feeling awful nauseus and had a terrible headache. I ve taken 2 paracetamols and more or less was sick straight away and it was bright orange liquid. I haven t eaten anything since yesterday afternoon which i brought up anyway.
it is likely the codeine is making you feel sick you are obviously very sensitive to it. you did the right thing stopping this medication and the symptoms should improve over the next 24-48hrs. your torticollis should also improve over a few days. heat compress, antiinflammatory medication, massage and physiotherapy can help with the symptoms.
