HPV gardasil

My daughter's school are vaccinating for HPV next week, but I am not sure whether to go ahead. I am alarmed having read the side effects & personal experience comments at the bottom of the HPV side effects page on the NHS website:
www.nhs.uk/conditions/vaccinations/pages/hpv-vaccine-cervarix-gardasil-side-effects.aspx
I quote: 13yr old girl in ‘waking’ coma since her 3rd HPV.
In Japan 1928 side effects reported & the Health Ministry has withdrawn its recommendation of the use of HPV vaccine.
Polysorbate 80 - said to be linked to infertility in mice
May increase risk of cancer: (1) Gardasil not tested for cancer causing properties/carcinogenicity; (2) due to replacement; (3) due to presence of recombinant HPV DNA.; 1287 serious side effects reported to June 2013;
HPV: www.nhs.uk/conditions/vaccinations/pages/hpv-human-papillomavirus-vaccine.aspx Cancer Research apparently have no figures on the instance of HPV strains 16 & 18 related to cancer to 31 December 2012.

To a parent this all looks quite alarming and at the moment I shall not be going ahead, but does anyone have any views? Incidentally, my daughter has been through anti-candida process and is now wheat free, having suffered from perioral dermatitis, so I imagine she is considered to have had a lowered immunity (but no longer). Not sure if this makes her more at risk or not. I have sought advice in writing of her GP/homeopath who has treated her for the past 4 years.

The consultant who performed the procedure, gave me the fifty percent reduction for girls who are vaccinated young, I appreciated the info even though I have two boys, I always sort of believed as long as I was screened it wouldn't come up. I have had nicer pre Christmas outings I must say!

I haven't seen it anywhere before. I would like to know where he got it from.

Wherediparkmybroom · 01/01/2014 17:28

She did say it was a recent study, didn't catch the name as I was quite frankly terrified of getting in that bloody room!!!!

It will be interesting to see what the long term effects are.

and can we just quickly acknowledge that my family member is not the only one left with pregnancy complications after conisation?

bumbleymummy · 01/01/2014 21:00

Catherina, it has obviously already been acknowledged in an earlier post.

Any luck with that translation yet?

Wherediparkmybroom · 01/01/2014 21:35

Catherine I have no intention of more children so can't help you.

CatherinaJTV · 01/01/2014 21:36

I meant Kelly. Bumbley - in my spare time

bumbleymummy · 01/01/2014 21:49

I acknowledged the increase risk of complications in people with large samples removed and those who have had multiple procedures - that would include Kelly.

My 12yr old daughter had her 2nd vaccination on 11th March. On 16th March she had violent pain lower left stomach area. I called the ambulance & she was given entonox & morphine & taken into A&E. The pain went away, but she remains undiagnosed and is at home. We will have further blood tests. It may not be the injection. I will write an update if there is a definitive outcome.
