AIBU to withdraw consent for hpv vaccine

[Ilovehamabeads]

Signed the forms ages ago for DD to have the HPV vaccine tomorrow. I didn't really read up on it, other than the NHS info leaflet she bought home with the consent form.
Tomorrow is the day she's due to have the first jab. I'm now regretting signing that form so readily, having read more about it. I know in my head that the stories I've read are just the very, very few that went wrong out of millions. But, at the same time I'm thinking what if..
Would it be totally ridiculous to change my mind at the last minute? I think I just need a few people to tell me I'm an idiot for believing the evidence of a few, over the evidence of many!

It might be a good idea. It is expensive though, £450 at Boots, and they have run out of vaccine. They don't explain why it is only available to under 45s either....

yes you are.

I had cin 3 and had the loop where they took off an inch of my cervix - then had Pap smears every year for 10 years. BUT I did not/do not have the wart virus which is what they are vaccinating against. Also, my Pap smears have now switched to every three years because the NHS guidelines are that abnormal cells are slow growing and Pap smears are so effective these days they don't miss anything (hopefully!). My 11 year old daughter is fully vaccinated including chicken pox so I'm not anti-vaccination. But I have heard enough about this vaccination to decide for the moment that I will wait until she is 18 and let her decide if she wants it or not.

Hmm I'm not sure you need to wait till 18 - many teens are capable of making reasoned, informed decisions before that age. I no longer go into the doctor's office with my 16 year old - they make medical decisions between themselves.

i will let my beautiful friend who has cervical cancer know that she must have slept around when she was younger without ever noticing it (she had one partner - her husband). Unfortunately i can't do that, since she died of cervical cancer when her son was 4 years old. he barely remembers his mum now...

Actually hotbuttercrumpets many of my colleagues in the NHS whom I have worked with have declined the flu vaccine, me included. My choice not yours.
I suggest you do your own research. That is what I have stated in my post. I’ve done mine.
Routine smears are for women aged 25 and older at present not for women younger than this.
Oh and I never said in my post that I had a problem with anything so not sure where u came to that conclusion??
