On Dec 18, 2008 my 18 yrs old received her 3rd shot. No problems until then. She has had a skin rash for over 3 months now. They first said it was a virus, then pityriasis rosea, eczema, and after a skin bio the diagnosis includes an arthropod bite reaction and urticarial hypersensitivity reaction to a drug. For 3 months I've been asking if it might be the gardasil and they keep saying NO. She's had every type of cream, some costing $90 and now on predisone. They also thought it might be scabies. The rash has looked like several different kinds of rashes. But still she itches all the time and has had a more severe rash in her private areas. It seems like the rash is always changing. So far that's been the only problem, unlike some of what I've read. I'm only praying that nothing else happens. They also said that living in a dorm could have bugs and that's where the bite would come from. But she had been living in the dorm for 3 months, came home, received her 3rd shot and now we have been to the dr. several times a month trying to relieve her itching and rash. Has anyone else had just the rash??

Hi. I have just recently been diagnosed w/ pityriasis rosea. I have also recieved the gardisil shots. Maybe this is a side effect of the shot that has not been published yet. I have got 2 out of the 3 shots. Now i feel very weary about getting the third. Dont know what to do, or if I am being paranoid.

After 4 months, they now say she has scabies. But no one else has it. Her roommate in college was just told she had pityriasis rosea, but she never had the gardsil shot. I don't know what's going on, but it's been 4 months of hell for my daughter, not to mention her 1st year at college with all these problems. Good luck

My daughter is also sick from gardasil, Maybe you would like to look into the group let's talk about gardasil@yahoo.com. I am a member there and they have good info.
sincerely Karen
