so sorry for your pain! My daughter had this vacc. that the peds doctor insisted her having! She was a perfect teenager that had dreams of becoming a OB doctor when she grew up! Now her dream is to warn everyone of this nightmare! She can't go to the bathroom by herself, she can't run and be a child! She stays in pain everyday! It's amazing to me how all the doctors and specialist we have been to has a different diagnose' everytime! (auto immune, Guillian Barre, Lupus, CMT, Mono) THERE IS NO CURE FOR THIS UNGODLY CREATED FATAL DRUG!! This is terrible! How can anyone who created this drug lay their head down at night on their pillow that's made out of "GOLD"!!! This was a complete money pit for the devil himself! We are trying to go live with this! (talk shows, news, CNN, Radio Stations) Please if you would like to be there and be heard. My name is T. I can be reached ******. Everyone who is going through this horrible nightmare. You are in our thoughts and PRAYERS!!! Thanks!

Thank you so much for this info. I'm 38 y.o. and my doctor recommended to get the Gardasil shots, as my pap smear came abnormal and I have cervica dysplasia. She said now days you don't know who to trust and even married people should get it, and this would prevent me from getting other strains of HPV. I was really struggling to make a decision but after reading all this I'm definitely NOT doing it!! For 2 reasons. 1: I'm in good health otherwise, but at my age my immune system is not as strong making me more likely to gave stronger side effects, and second reason: I read that now days as long as you get an annual pap smear, you are save, as dysplasia (which can progress to cancer if untreated) will be treated before it becomes cancer. My doctor told me there are several treatments available and they always work, so as long as you follow up after an abnormal pap smear, you are save from getting cancer!! Also, it is a fact that most girls/young women became NATURALLY immune to HPV by the time they are 30, because as my dr. told me, before that age most women fight it off as their immune system is stronger than after 30. So for all these reasons, I'm NOT getting the vaccine and my daughters (now 8 and 10) will not be getting it either!!! Cervical cancer has become non-existent in countries were annual pap smears are obligatory(Denmark is an example), because they treat it before it becomes cancer! And if you make sure you and your loved ones do too, that's all we have to do instead of getting man-made shots that can potentially harm us!!!
Good luck to everyone.

I am 20 years old, and my pediatrician gave me the first 2 doses of this vaccine this year. About a couple weeks after the 1st dose back in march, my legs started to hurt very badly. It was to the point where i couldn't move them. And when i could move my legs, they felt very heavy and hard to lift. I even had a lot of loose stool. I thought nothing of it at the time, and neither did the doctor. Then i had my 2nd dose last month June 2010, and i was feeling fine. Nothing was bothering me or irritating me health wise. The only thing i found a little odd was the loose stool, because this isn't normal for me. But about 2 days later i started itching like crazy. It was to the point that i was feeling like i needed to rip off my skin. It even kept me up all night. There is no rash, which i find very odd. To this day i am still itchy. The doctors can't figure out why i am feeling this way. They keep trying to blame it on the beauty products and food i eat. All my blood tests are coming back all fine. How can that be, if i was just fine up until i was vaccinated??? Also my mother is in denial that another medication is causing this reaction. Everybody that i tell this to, thinks i am crazy. I am willing to discontinue my other medication(birth control pill) to prove that this is the gardasil vaccine causing this. The only thing that relieves the itching temperately is benadryl tablets, or any type of allergy pill. But even then i am still itchy. After reading all of these posts, i have decided not to get my 3rd dose of this vaccine in October. I feel very bad for everybody who life has been ruined by this vaccine that is supposed to help girls. My prayers go out to all the girls and their familys who are suffering.

i got the vaccine in high school and most of my friends have as well and none of us have had any symptoms at all. girls as young as 9 can get the vaccine. every person's body is different and will react differently to anything, therefore you shouldn't rely on anything the internet says and you should not let it dictate what you should or shouldn't do. Always speak to your doctor if you want to know what's right for you. they are the ones with your medical histories.

Our daughter received the Gardasil vaccines in her senior year and has had nothing but health issues since. After about a year of tests for everything your could possibly imagine,..the Dr's have come up with Lupus and Rheumatoid arthritis as a diagnosis. Lovely...this is what a 20 year old really needs..who was perfectly normal before. Physicians are not willing to admit this could be caused by the vaccine,..that it is just a coincidence.
There is no coincidence in my opinion and I know deep in my heart it was the Gardasil vaccine.
Most obvious symptoms started after her 3rd shot. Trouble breathing (feeling like she can't catch her breath), electrical shocking feeling through her limbs, numbness and tingling, headaches, seizures, muscle spasms, "thick" blood, thrombosis, irritability, confusion, poor decision making, tumors and warts, fever/chills, pains everywhere,..just to name a few symptoms.

So my question are,..So what now???? Will she ever be able to lead a normal life? Will she ever be able to have children? Will this poison ever clear from her body?

Merck hasn't tested this vaccine long enough in my opinion ,,..and it needs to get pulled from the shelves. We were told this was a safe vaccine...I wish we would have never ever let our daughter get it!

33 days after receiving the first Gardasil vaccine, our daughter had flu-like symptoms and her joints were very sore. We thought she had the flu and did not associate it at the time with the Gardisil vaccine. 33 days after the second Gardasil vaccine, our daughter woke up with full-blown arthritis. After months, the arthritis gradually got better until it was only in her hips. Finally, after nine months, the arthritis just went away. Her pediatric arthritis specialist told her to "avoid Gardasil like the plague"! We rejoiced that her body could heal itself like that and thought our troubles were over.

However, exactly one year after our daughter woke up with arthritis--one year later to the day--she woke up with asthma! It took many months of seeing her regular doctor and two pulmonologists for them to finally diagnose her illness as asthma. One doctor thought it was psychological. Never believe that! Believe your symptoms! Now our daughter sees an allergy, asthma, and immunology specialist--that is the right kind of doctor, at least. Our daughter is still battling very severe asthma which she has had for 1 year and 10 months. After trying Flovent, then Advair for months, the doctor put her on, Symbicort, which she has been on for nine weeks. Symbicort finally allows her to breathe but there are very serious side effects caused by the Symbicort that she has to deal with. But breathing is so important that she copes with and tries to manage the side effects. Our daughter has not been able to attend school for three years. She is homeschooled. She almost never goes outside unless we have to go to the doctor. She has had many upper respiratory illnesses because of asthma that trigger the asthma! Our daughter has unbelievable mental strength and fortitude. She is stoical and never complains. I admire her more than anyone. I rue the day that we allowed her to be vaccinated with Gardasil! I am convinced that the vaccine inflamed her system and damaged her immune system. However, after reading about the poor young women who have died from the vaccine, we feel very lucky that our daughter has survived the vaccine and can still fight to get well.

Well I must be honest that since I took the shots I feel very weak, with many headaches. But, my doctor has found recently that I have all those symptoms due to low iron levels. hmmm It's hard for me to blame it all in Gardasil...Also I used to have the headaches before taking the shots, but they're more pronounced....

My grandma actually passed away from cervical cancer produced by HPV... I've seen all the pain she went through..and I guess I prefer to deal with headaches and getting a better nutrition to get the energy I need...than suffering as much as my grandma did....Nowdays, it's very hard to trust in one's partner 100%hmm..and come on..not all the time, we'll use condoms

Do not take the Gardisil shot.

I just got off the phone with my daughter who was in tears. She received the shot beginning in the fall of 2006, as she entered her freshman year of college. She is not out of college and planning to marry in the fall. After spending many hours during her college years in pain with severe migraines, fatigue, cramps and all over unexplained pain, she has now learned that her pap test came back positive for the HPV Virus. They are going to have to burn her cervix to try and rid her of the virus.

I regret so much that I let my 13 year old daughter have this vaccine after I was convinced by her doctor that this vaccine is really needed and beneficial for my daughter when I took her there for the physical exam yesterday. I did ask the doctor if it has any side effects before I let my daughter have the shot, but she said that the only side effect is that a child could be fainted, but it is only because the child is too scared of the shot. I wish that I know this website and the vaccine's serious side effects before my daughter had the vaccine. I now feel very guilty, and I think I will live in guilt everyday for making such a stupid decision. I will not forgive myself if anything ever happens to my daughter.

Is there any way to get the toxic of the vaccine out after a child just had a vaccine the first time. Please....please let me and other parents know if anyone knows a way to help getting it out.

If there are so many health problems caused by this vaccine, can we sue the pediatricians and the company that produce this vaccine?

Thank you very...very... much to you all for posting the terrible problems that is caused by Gardasil.

Best Wished to all,

W.

i was given gardasil as a recommendation from my gp. big mistake. after receiving the first injection i could not use my arm for more than a month, i went back to the doctor 3 times and they said it was a 'sensitivity' to the drug. from then my life has gone down hill. i am 20years old and cannot enjoy life the way i should at 20. i used to run 6kms a day everyday and was always out and busy. somedays now walking up the stairs i feel exhausted and my heart is pounding. often i'm moody and antisocial, my limbs get weak and occasionally give out on me all together, i have electric like shooting pains everywhere, abdominal pain and severe headaches. the worst thing that is happening to me is complete lack of concentration and permanent vertigo. somedays i can go about my life with some, but not a lot of difficulty. other days, often days at a time i can barely stand or focus on anything. i am taking a drug called prochlorperazine maelate to help stabilize and restore some normality tho it hasn't cured anything. i i have symptoms of ms and have had many scans that all came back normal. the last year has been spent seeing neurologists, doctors, homeopaths but nothing has helped.neurologists have sent me home telling me i was fine and had a migraine. accepting this free vaccine to prevent cancer has been the worst thing i have ever done. i just want my life back. so please please warn every young girl you know, this vaccine is dangerous and can ruin your life. i wish i knew then what i know now. i hope this site will be read by anyone considering accepting a gardasil vaccine, if that is you, dont do it. my heart goes out to all you girls suffering like i am and i really hope you will be well again

I got the Gardasil shot in September 2007 (age 15) because it was highly recommended by the doctor. Starting three days after I received the vaccine, I got a terrible migraine headache. A few weeks later, I noticed that I still had a headache, and I felt crazy saying this, but I told my mom that I was pretty sure I'd had a headache everyday for a few weeks. I got an MRI, a CT scan, went to a neurologist, took sinus medication, you name it. Finally, a doctor asked if I could think of anything that happened around the time I got the first headache that was different than usual. That's when I realized I had received Gardasil a few days prior.

Now, at age 18, I have had a migraine everyday of my life for two years and eight months. The list of medicines, vitamins, herbs, and treatments I have tried is endless. This vaccine is absolutely not worth the side effects it causes.

My doctor told me it would be a good idea to get the shot before I turned 20 because my insurance covers it until then, so I did. I got it over a week ago, (5/13) and since then I have experienced severe headaches, migraines, nausea, vomiting, tingling in my hands/feet, pains around the top of my spine, itching/burning of my entire body (mainly my arms and legs and in the middle of my chest), and I have recently developed an unusual rash on my forearm. It's a small cluster of seven red bumps that feel like a bad sunburn. Using the stairs at school to get from class to class takes a lot of energy now--I feel like an old woman and I'm only 19. Are these symptoms going to last forever?

Our 14 year old daughter received her first Gardasil shot on 2/23/10. Five days after that she she began complaining that her toes were tingling. When it moved to her feet and pelvic area we saw the first of many doctors. We are lucky, though, in that our 3rd neurologist believes that all of her symptoms are related to the shot and she filed the VAERS report this week.

Since that dreadful day our daughter has numbness and tingling in her hands, feet, back, and pelvic area. She also has terrible headaches, muscle soreness, bad back pain, chest pain and excessive fatigue.

Parents, please believe all of these posts. We were just a typical suburban family whose children were in sports, school activities and got good grades. Now our family live revolves around how our daughter feels each day and what appointment is coming up the next day.

This vaccine is terrible and very toxic. Please don't let your daughters get this and if you have but haven't gone through with the second or third, please don't. Once I can get a handle on our new "normal" I will actively go after Merck and our state to stop giving this poison.

Our 14 year old daughter got her first shot on 2/23/10 and will never get number 2 and 3. 5 Days after her shot her big toes started to tingle, followed by her feet, hands, back and pelvic. By the grace of God we had our 2nd neurologist tell us it appeared as if she had been poisoned and that led us to Gardasil. We figured out the connection 3 days before she was due for her second shot.

Since then her symptoms continue but now include massive headaches, chest pain, muscle soreness and terrible back pain. Our 3rd neurologist filed a VAERS report this week linking the issues to Gardasil so we are very grateful that she believes us. We are seeing a vaccine toxic neurologist next week in hopes that she can do something for our daughter. Thankfully she isn't having the seizures and brain fog but all of these other issues are terrible in themselves.

Please help pass the word that this is a very toxic vaccine and girls should not get it. I do regret every day that I allowed her to get her first one but I know that doesn't help matters. We try to keep a positive attitude and realize that she really could be worse. Please, parents, don't let your girls get this!

My 16 year old daughter received all three doses of Gardasil (apparently Poison) about two years ago and soon after began having problems. Prior to receiving the shots she was an active teenager, on the school drill team, and an excellent student in accelerated classes. She applied to and was accepted (on scholarship) to an excellent private college prep boarding high school. Now she is back home as she was unable to continue at the boarding school. She has suffered from depression, memory loss, severe headaches, back pain, stomach pain, intermittent vision problems, rapid and extreme personality change, muscles twitch and fells like veins contract in her arms, doesn't sleep well, feels the need to stretch all of her extremities often, and leans involuntarily to one side or the other on many occasions. She has been diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and has suffered rapid weight gain of over 70lbs. Before the shots, she wanted to be a surgeon. Now we will be doing very well if she graduates from high school. She cannot stand to look at her own hands because she can see the bones and veins and it freaks her out! She will never be a surgeon now. HER FUTURE IS COMPROMISED BECAUSE OF RECEIVING THIS VACCINE!!! I feel guilty that I allowed our Pediatrician to give her the shots. I am one mad momma!!!! I pray for all of our children and pray that we can find a way to reverse the HORRIBLE side effects. My younger daughter WILL NOT be receiving these shots.

Not sure what to think, my 18 year old daughter had her first Gardisal shot in oct. 2006 and finished the series in Nov. 07. She has suffered from migraines since that time but we haven't ever related the two, but two months ago she experienced what seemed exactly like an epileptic seizure. The neurologist thought maybe it was a fluke (sleep deprevation) but we ran an eeg and MRI. The eeg showed abnormal brain activity during the hyperventilation part of the test which only lasted 3-5 seconds. Because of the abnormal EEG and the fact she had a seizure we began an antiseizure med (low dose of lamictal). Two months later, she had another seizure exactly like the one before. We are devastated and at a loss as too why after all of this time she is showing signs of seizure activity. She is no longer driving and we are working with the Dr. but I can't help wonder if this could be the cause. How long would/could the seizures show up after the series of shots???

My daughter is 14 and has received two shots so far. The second shot was received fall of 09. Since around that time, her periods occur every two weeks instead of every 4 weeks. She complains of stomach pains as well. I haven't read this as a side effect yet. Has anyone seen a change occur in their daughter's menstrual cycle? She has doctor appt tomorrow but I will not allow them to give her the third shot.

I just received my 2nd gardasil shot today. I got my first one in Sept, the same time as a tetnus shot. I felt very drained that day but thought it was b/c of the tetnus shot. Well, today I got my Gardisil shot at 10:00 am. By 12:00 pm I felt extremely fatigued was at work feeling so dazed and confused. About a half hour later I felt the dizziness, and nausea. Needless to say I left work early I came home and slept for a couple hours. I feel like I can go back to sleep. I just feel so drained like if I can go back to sleep all together I just dont feel right or like myself. After reading all of these stories about gardisil and it's side effects I will definitely not be getting my third shot!!

I moved to AZ last year I just started going to the doctor, on my first visit which was earlier this month he is pushing me to get the shot. I have HPV, he is still pushing saying it will help keep me from getting other strains. Also I had HPV when I had my daughter who is now 7 and they are trying to get me to agree to get her the shot when she is 9. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN! I will not allow my fiance to get his daughter one either! I am now 24 years old and they are still wanting me to get it. After reading your heart wrenching stories and using a lot of tissues to do so, I will post this to *** to *** to everything I can to inform other girls about this shot! I will pray for your daughters and yourselves. I know a lot of the parents have self-blame. DON'T! You were LIED to. You did what you thought was best for your child. You were doing the right thing trying to protect them from cancer. Dont blame yourselves put the blame right where it belongs on the Doctors and on MERCK! You love your children and did the best you could with the information you had. My prayer are with you ALSO DO NOT LET THEM GIVE YOUR CHILD ANTIDEPRESSANTS!!!!!!! One side effect is SUICIDE! I had taken so many different ones when I was younger 8-16. I will never take one again. They made it worse. People thought I was getting better because I smiled but it was a lot worse. I now have a weight problem caused my a slow metabolism caused by the medications I was on. I have had children with birth defects and am still wondering if that was from those STUPID PILLS!

Yesterday, I was made to feel like a bad parent because I refused Gardasil for my 16 year old daughter. The doctor poo-pooed internet information and told my daughter that it would be her decision in two years. This website (thank God) has at least validated my decision. Thank you for sharing your heart ache and maybe saving at least one beautiful young girl.

My daughter is 14. Like most people her doctor did blood work and we are now waiting for the results. Of course he told me that hair loss was not a side effect of Gardasil, not to his knowledge. I called VAERS # 1-877-888-4231 filed a complaint, and was given a complaint number. When I asked if anyone else had reported hair loss they told me they could not give me that information, but a medical professional (doctor, nurse, pharmacist) could obtain the information by calling # 1-800-672-6372. When I meet with the doctor about my daughters blood work I will have him call at that time. God bless you and your children.

I have a 14 year old daughter who is completely bald today. She started having a hard time sleeping and always felt run down 2 months after her last shot. Dr always blamed it on cold or just menstrual cycle. By the 6th month she started seeing hair loss on an eyebrow and loosing hair. within 6 months of that Selena was balding at a rapid pace. Dr again blamed it on auto immne disease or stress. . All bloodwork shows no signs of Selena immune being off.
I now have my 22 year old going through the same. I am afraid that she too will have the same thing happen to her. And fear my 12 year old may start as well.
We have no idea if she will get her hair back, but it has changed her life completely. If anyone has had the same happen, please reach out to me, I need some hope and answers for my daughters.

My granddaughter, a normal, healthy 13 year old received her first gardasil shot 3/25/10 at her pediatricians office. Within minutes she began what ended up being a series of seizures, followed by passing out and at one point before the ambulance took to the nearest ER she stopped breathing and was resuscitated. My daughter described the event as watching her daughter dying in her arms and there was nothing anyone could do. Her pediatrician and the hospital have reposted this event to the CDC as the very worse reaction to this vaccine they have ever seen. According to all the information previously released the severe symptoms were being reported as a result of girls who had pre-existing conditions. My granddaughter HAD NO PRE-EXISTING MEDICAL CONDITION NOR WAS SHE ON ANY KIND OF MEDICATION FOR ANYTHING WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

Parents,
For more information please go to truthaboutgardasil.org You must file a VAERS report, you can do this online. There are thousands of sick girls but cases are going unreported and nothing is being done. If we want this to stop we must united and spread the word about these terrible side effects. Write your newspapers, Local News, Talk Show, whoever will give you a shot of getting the Gardasil Girls story out. Our girls are sick and it's time to fight on their behalf!

My daughter has also been injured by Gardasil. If your daugher or know of a girls that is suffering from Gardasil, PLEASE report to VAERS. Ask the doctor the vaccinated her to file or get the Lot Numbers yourself and file on the VAERS website. CDC reports that on 1-10% of cases are not being reported. If we all take a few minutes to fill that out, the real numbers will increase and maybe then we can get Gardasil taken off the market. For more info and support go to truthaboutgardasil.org
Parents, we must raise awareness!! The public must be made aware of the deaths and suffering our girls are going through, we cannot take back our decision to vaccinate but we can sure spread the word and stop this from happening to one more family. Our girls are to sick to fight this battle but for our girls we must win this war!!

Today is day 7 since my 16 year old received her second shot of Gardasil. By day four we were in the ER because of fever, pain, numbness and tingling in her limbs, headaches, stomach pain, extreme fatigue, weight loss. She was diagnosed with a UTI and dehydration due to fever. I was treated like I was nuts for thinking this could be a result of her getting the Gardasil. I was told that there is no way this was a reaction to the vaccine since it was a booster and she did not react to the first one. I disagree, but can not prove it. They're blaming her UTI for the symptoms. I blame the shot for the UTI and every other symptom she's had since the very day she got the second shot. One week later, she's still fatigued, still running low grade fevers, still can't eat without stomach pain, still weak, and complaining now of sore throats! How many girls are going to have to go through this before something is done to really expose Merk for what this drug has done? My Pharmacist reported my daughters symptoms to the FDA and Merk. Merk dismissed it saying she was probably developing infection prior to getting the shot. I am outraged that I am reading so many heartbreaking testimonials of what this drug is doing to our daughters and yet, NOTHING has been done to stop it or even expose the side effects. Where is the media coverage on this? ONE LESS....Are they going for ONE LESS generation of kids????? I'm pissed off and I am not going to stop reaching out to people and letting people know what this drug is doing to our girls. My daughter went from an active, healthy and outgoing young woman to barely being able to get off the couch! I have to wonder: How many employees of Merk are getting their daughters vaccinated with this poison????

My now 19 year old daughter her her gardasil shots 3/07, 7/07, and 1/08. Since that time she has had a myriad of medical issues, chronic constipation, migraines, fainting spells, back and leg pain, tingling in neck and legs, MRSA, extreme menstrual pain, tumor at base of spine surgically removed, vomiting, nausea. The list goes on and on. Still to this days over 2.5 years later she still has extreme back pain and numbness.

Thought all this I found the most help at http://truthaboutgardasil.org/.

There you can read other Gardasil Girls' stories, names of people who can help and treatments that have been found to help.

Most important make sure your gardasil reactions are reported on VAERS!

My 16 year old daughter just had her second shot of Gardasil on Thursday. It's now Saturday night and she's running fever of 103, she's achey and extremely exhausted. Taking deep breaths makes her cough. She did not react to the first dose. I am so overwhelmed by guilt after reading all of this that I made the choice to give her a vaccination that was intended to help her and it's put her in harms way. I called her pediatricians office and spoke to a nurse who told me that it could not be a reaction to the gardasil vaccination when she did not react the first time it was given to her. All I know is she has the same symptoms 3 days later that presented within hours of getting the shot.

In December 2009 my 11 yrs daughter had her physical and was told she needed her shots. She had 5 that day one of them was this shot. Later that day she was complaining of shortness of breathe, she told her dad that she couldn't breathe so we immediately rushed her to the er but by the time we got in the back to see the doc she was having severe cramps. We were told she was constipated and sent home. We thought it was weird because she's never had no trouble breathing, but we trusted the doctors and went home trying to get her to go to the bathroom. She would complain about her stomach hurting on & off but I continued to think it was due to her getting her first period. A week ago March 4th,10 she had her second shot and was dizzy and light headed and we had to stay there until she wasn't dizzy anymore. And now less than a week later she's running high fevers 104.8 and vomiting, can't keep anything in her stomach not even water. I took her the e.r. and we were told it was gastroenteritis. I told the triage nurse and the doctor that she could be having side effects from the shot and they said oh no, that usually happens within the first 48 hours. Why do they blow you off like that when your child is sick? My friend found this web site and after reading all of your heart wrenching stories and I'm praying she doesn't get any sicker. What I can promise is that she WON"T be getting the 3rd shot. My heart goes out to all of these girls and their familes. Where can I go to sign up to get this off the market.?

My 15 year old daughter due for final shot on Thursday - not going ahead with it - since her second shot she has experienced pins and needles in both arms and hands - muscle weakness in both arms, stomach problems, warts growing on both elbows - warts on her mouth, headaches and really tired.
These symptoms started about a week after her injection and she still has them 4 months later.. but not all the time...

I didn't think much of it as it wasn't happening all the time, and put it down to growing pains - but now I am not so sure.. will be going to Doctors on Thursday .. but it wont be to get the injection..

She started taking multi vitamins which seemed to help some of the symptoms but not all..

The help line I called tried to tell my that all these symptoms have nothing to do with the vaccine.. but my gut tells me differently...

My daughter L. (20) had a first shot January 2010. Although she had warned her doctor about
allergy problems and was very reluctant to take the vaccination, he insisted so much that she did take it. 2 weeks later, she started being awaken every night because her left arm was moving in an uncontrolled way. She did not connect it to the vaccination and had her second shot. Then, she once woke up at the bottom her bed and realized she had beaten her tongue. At this point she decided to tell us about it and we realized she had become epileptic. Since then, she has had several crises during the night and it seems obvious that the effect is irreversible. She will have an electroencephalography next week and we hope that doctors will prescribe a treatment stopping it....
At this point, we are despaired and furious not to have been warned at any time against possible side effects. We really think some action should be taken against the company. Any one wanting to give us information is welcome.

If I would have asked what the ingredients of the vaccine were and done research prior to I would not have gotten this vaccine. I was naive, my gyn said get it and I did without asking questions.

I received the last of my gardasil vaccine March of 2009. Immediately after i broke out in a rash/hives on my body. I started experiencing headaches on a regular basis, back pain, shortness of breath and severe depression. November of 2009 I started experiencing tingling and zaps and gyrations in my legs, feet, arms, and hands as well as head. I have muscle twitches, weakness, fatigue, shortness of breath, back pain. And now swollen lymph nodes although I have no knowledge of having had a cold or virus. labs revealed a high level of arsenic in my body, and proteins in my blood.

OUR 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER J. E. DIED INSTANTLY 40 HOURS AFTER HER THIRD GARDASIL VACCINE. MADE BY MERCK IT FAST TRACKED THROUGH THE APPROVAL PROCESS BEFORE IT WAS EVEN DONE BEING TESTED. WE HAVE TALKED TO PARENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD WHO LOST A DAUGHTER OR ARE TRYING TO FIND THE LINK THAT PROVES GARDASIL OR CERVEREX MADE THERE CHILD VERY ILL. GROUPS LIKE LETSTALKABOUTGARDASIL,AND THETRUTHABOUTGARDASIL,HAVE BEEN FORMED BY PARENTS AND CONCERNED PROFESSIONALS. WE FOUND RESEARCHERS WHO WERE PAID OFF TO FALSIFY RECORDS SO VACCINES WERE APPROVED. WE FOUND THE MERCK PLANT RECEIVED A WARNING LETTER FROM THE FDA BUT NOTHING WAS EVER DONE ABOUT THE CONTAMINATED LOTS OF GARDASIL. ALL KINDS OF EVIDENCE THAT OUR CHILDREN ARE JUST GUINEA PIGS FOR PROFIT.GOD BLESS AMERICA

My daughter got her second shot Monday, February 22 at 3p.m. She starting running 101 fever about 2 hours after the shot, having stomach pain and feeling horrible. Today is Wednesday and she is still running a fever and has flu like symptoms so I starting researching how long she would have fever and found all of the above info. My daughter has been repeatedly sick since she got the first shot, but it didn't dawn on me that it was from getting the Gardasil. She has been very tired and almost depressed. It would have been nice to know that there were alot more side affects to this drug that what the public is aware. Why would the FDA approve something so bad to be administered to anyone let alone young girls. I am wondering if I should go to a Holistic Doctor to get her detoxed. My daughter will not get the third shot and I will tell everyone I know not to get it.

I am 19 years old and I got the first shot and right after I got it my hair started falling out badly. My hair used to be really thick and now it's thinning out and I am getting bald spots. How long will this last? I have gone to the doctors and they don't know what to tell me, because they cant figure it out. I told them I strongly believe that this shot did it and I told my doctor that and she never heard of that happening. I really want to fix this problem and get my hair growing back because it's really scaring me because I am only 19 and if this keeps it up I will be bald soon enough. Any help of how long this will take to fix or even what to do about it?

I am 20 and I got the shot last Friday, that was 3 days ago, it is now Monday. Saturday morning around 5am i woke up in pain, could not get comfortable and felt very sick. Then I began punking. I have honestly never thrown up that much in my life. I couldn't stop. I couldn't even keep water down. Then about 7pm or so that night, i started keeping drink and chicken broth down. But I took my temp and it was 101, my normal body temp is about 97.Also, my entire body hurt and i had a really fast heartbeat. My temp stayed up pretty much all night, even with talking Motrin every 4 hours. It is the next day now and i still have very bad diarrhea, but my fever is down to a lil over 98. However, my throat is hurting and Im starting to feel very dazed and confused. After reading what everyone is saying about this shot i cant believe that it is still being given out and even suggested. Im engaged and didn't even think about getting it, but my doctor suggested that i did, so i figured why not, what could it hurt. Well apparently it can hurt a lot, and i think we need to pull together and get this shot taken off the market. I don't know if im on my way to getting better, or worse right now. But i dont care, either way im willing to work with anyone who will join me and fight to get this shot taken off the market. email my at ******
