Woops has given some wonderful advice. Withdrawals from codeine are no fun but after say 2 weeks you should feel much better, the worst of it peaking around 72 hours or so. Nausea, leg cramps/shakes, aches and pains all over, lack of appetite, insomnia, depression, constipation are all symptoms you will experience and more. Just do your best to realize these will fade and you will feel better soon.
You do not want to take anything at all to medicate. This will only feed the monster and quite possibly give you something else, something even worse to detox from depending on what they prescribe.
Pain meds are one of the easier substances to get away from, though I know this is of no comfort to those going through it. You'll make it, just drink as much water and juice as you can keep down and eat if and when you can tolerate to replenish your strength.
