May 24 symptoms and conditions

Here is our daughter's story, and believe me the tears are pouring down my face as I am writing this.
Our daughter, who had completed her series of 3 vaccinations has been experiencing considerable hair loss. Her first shot was in May 24, 2007, the second on July 26, 2007 and the third and final on November 27, 2007.
Here are the other specifics....our daughter was 13 turning fourteen.
She has had every blood test imaginable to rule out the obvious which may cause hair loss such as thyroid disease, polycystic ovary disease, diabetes, and the list goes on and on. Everything came back negative. We even have a future appointment scheduled with a rheumatologist this coming November 08. We have seen the Endocrinologist and two dermatologists (a scalp biopsy proved negative to any infection, disease, etc. Granted, she had a typical amount of stress during the school year, as any young teen would, but nothing to cause this. Everyday our daughter says to us, "you should see how much hair fell out in the shower today". She's so afraid to brush or comb it because of the extreme shedding. She literally, to date has half the amount of hair she had one year ago. Let me tell you she had beautiful hair. The hair loss is becoming quite visible at the forward part of her scalp. This has been devastating, hair is everything to a teen. (to anyone this is devastating) We must also mention that her periods have been totally out of whack. She went 6 months at one point without one. It finally came back, but it is so sporadic, getting every two weeks, at times extremely heavy, etc...
She also complains of intermitent dizziness. We are reporting this to Merck today (the Co. who makes this horriffic vaccine), along with the FDA. If anyone else is experiencing anything close to what we are, we all need to pull together and make the public aware of what's happening so we can prevent this from happening to our loved ones.
Please share your experiences. Feel free to write me if someone you know is going through this same tragedy.

My doctor prescribed the NuvaRing to me because I told her I was having trouble following and taking my Loestrin 24 pill everyday. She told me that I would feel more moisture down there but that it was normal. Before being on the NuvaRing I was on Loestrin 24 and then Yasmin ( WHICH IS AWFUL, as well). 1 week into the Ring I was crying, emotionally unstable, NO SEX drive WHATSOEVER, irritable etc...

This happened just on Saturday May 24..., but I was out with my boyfriend of 2 years and we had some drinks. Normally I am a very happy drunk, but that night we got into an argument ( I don't remember any of this because I had way too much to drink ) but he said i attacked him and there is a bite mark on his arm to prove it! This makes me INCREDIBLY emotional to think that I would EVER try to hurt him. I was insane he said and tried to drive my car while under the influence of alcohol which is something I WOULD NEVER EVER DO if just having some alcohol in me. This NuvaRing has turned me into a destructive person and now my boyfriend and I are on the verge of a breakup due to my weekend incident. PLEASE, Ladies DO NOT take this. I am a 19 year old college student, with no background of being depressed. Sometime I do get into little petty arguments but they never mean anything. I just took the Ring out this morning, and I ALREADY feel better I can't even explain it. Please do not take this Ring, it is not worth it. Sure I did not have to remember taking a pill everyday, but I would change everything if I could now.

I received my first shot of Gardasil in January 2007. It could have started sooner, but about a month later my hairdresser noticed a bald spot in the back of my head. I rushed back to my ObGyn and asked her if the Gardasil could be the cause as nothing else had recently changed. She said that she had not heard of this, but she referred me to a dermatologist. I asked him if my hair loss had anything to do with the Gardasil. He replied that I had Alopecia areata and one thing had nothing to do with the other. He advised that I continue with the Gardasil and that he would start treating me for the alopecia. I wish that I would not have listened. I don't know what would have happened if I had stopped then, but I didn't I proceeded with the treatment to the end now over half of my head is bald!!!
I don't know what to do. I keep going back to the dermatologist for treatments for the alopecia, but it just keeps getting worse.
If anyone has had a similar experience and would like to share or has found some other treatments that work, please post a reply.
