Concerns re allergic reaction to regular Tylenol pain caps twice over the last two weeks. Begins about 20 minutes after dosage with a hot tingly, prickly, itchy buzz at the ears and a red flush similar to a bad sunburn lasting about one to two hours. Spreads to the arms, face, neck and legs.

I have been sick with flu symptoms for about 5 days. For a few days I was taking tylenol every four hours for the pain and severe chills. Ever time I took it, about 20-30 minutes later I started sweating profusely and that would last 3 hours. I'd be soaked. Noone seems to beleive it is related to tylenol but I can make it happen every time by taking it, so it must be! I's sure like to know what is causing the high fever and sweating from taking the tylenol.
