Hello, I had PRK two days ago, and my doctor wouldn't prescribe any pain killers. Rather, he said to just take Motrin or Tylenol, which "should be enough," as he put it. This is day three for me, and as expected, the pain is especially bad. I happen to have some Tylenol3 (Tylenol 300+Codeine) on hand, and was wondering whether I can take it. I am 26 years old, in excellent health, and good physical shape. I have no medical conditions, and have had no ill effects using this medication in the past for short-term pain management. Can you think of any reason why my doctor would not want me taking this? Are there any contraindications for PRK and Codeine? Please advise, as I would really rather take the stronger stuff today, and go back to the over- the-counter drugs tomorrow. Thanks, Irina
