Gardasil - - Real stories from Real people plus a surprise ending
By Cynthia A. Janak
Today I am going to give you real stories from real people about their experiences with the dangerous wonder drug Gardasil. The reason that I am doing this is because I can give you all the data that I can find but reading actual accounts will help in making the decision to vaccinate or not. Here are some of them because they are too numerous to use them all.

Today I recieved my 2nd Gardasil shot. I am 18 years old. After the injection, I sat around for 10 minutes to make sure no breakout occured on my arm. Once the nurse told me I could leave, I walked to make my next appointment for the shot, and as the receptionist was talking to me my vision became darker and darker and I could not hear anything. I ended up fainting and bumping my head on the floor pretty hard, as well as getting a nice big scratch on my arm. I woke up and there were nurses all around me giving me juice and crackers. Has anybody else heard of situations like this with the vaccine? I was only passed out for a few seconds, but still very very scary.

I just got my Gardasil shot today, and I NEVER have problems with shots. I have never passed out because of shots or seeing blood, or anything like that. This time, however, I got the Gardasil shot and hit the floor HARD. I felt fine after the shot for about a minute, and even told the nurse "that wasn't so bad!" Then I got paint in my arm, and my muscles tightened. Before I knew it, I was waking up to doctor's calling my name. Not sure what happened!

I've always been good with shots — I actually don't mind watching them go into my arm or seeing my blood drawn or anything. In fact, when I got my shots for Kindgarden I didn't cry, and the nurse said I was the first kid that age she'd ever had that didn't cry. My first shot of Gardasil was the only shot I've ever received that actually made me cry. It was injected in a closet supply room (where they keep the vaccines. Weird, I know). As I was talking to my doctor later I felt as if I was going to faint. I didn't actually faint, but I wobbled around for about five minutes. It was really scary, and I think it disproves the "people only faint because they're apprehensive about shots" theory. Sure, I'd rather be getting a painful shot than cervical cancer or genital warts, but the Gardasil shot is not fun.

I know you prob. don't come on this page anymore since you wrote in May...but just incase...did your headache ever go away? I got my first injection a month ago and I've had a headache for the past 3 weeks every day which is destroying my quality of life.

My daughter had the three shots, the third being over 3 months ago. She still has a lump and increasing pain in her arm. We are now considering surgery, after having mri and other tests. Has anyone else had this problem, and had it resolve!! If I could do it all over again, I WOULD NOT have her have these shots.

I have only received one out of the three shots. I am only two weeks away from getting the second. I didn't realize it until a day ago but a have a large lump in my arm close to where the shot was given to me. The only thing I can think of that it would be is this shot. Now I am very worried, the nurse also told me everyone has told her the 2nd shot hurts the worst. I have had piercings and tattoos but this really bothers me to think about. The first one burned alot, I don't look forward to it. My lump also feels a bit warm, but it could just be because I keep feeling it to see if it's gone. Anyone else have a bump 1 1/2 months later?

My daughter is 23 got the 2nd shot on 8/8/07 and has had a terrible reaction to the shot. One week after the shot all of her lymph nodes were swollen. She could not open her mouth, her right arm was retracted.
We went to the hospital 3 days in a row before any one would agree that she experienced an adverse reaction to the shot. She has tingling in her right fingers off and on. She has to take Valium and Percocetts so she can open her mouth and function. Her voice is very high pitched when she first wakes up. This has been happening for 2 weeks. We are going to an ENT, rhumatologist and a nueruologist in the next month.
It's been 2.5 months and she is no better.

Hello,
I'm 16 and so far I've received 2/3 shots.
The first one didn't hurt but I hate doctors so I kinda had a hysteria attack and couldn't stop laughing, and the second one was ok I guess, the liquid to me felt cold but it felt like it was burning.
Anyways, it's been about three weeks now since I got the second shot, and I have this knot under my skin from where the shot was... it hurts and I can't put much strain on my arm for a long time... It's beginning to worry me.
Is that normal?

After having no problems with the first shot, I got the second shot about a month ago. The needle did not hurt, but the liquid going into my arm was really painful. My arm was really sore so I iced it and took Advil for a week. It has now been a month and my arm still really hurts. I have been back to the doctor twice and they tell me to keep icing it and taking Advil, but there is nothing else they can do. I cant sleep on the left side of my body or use my left arm to lift anything. I have no idea how long this will go on. I am dreading getting the third shot. Has anyone else had this problem?

hey!!! my name is andrea and i am 20 years old. i recieved my first gardasil injection about 2 days ago and my arm is still sore. my mom is making me and my little sister who is 16 take all three doses of the painful injections.
i went to the gyno on monday and i knew i was going to get it. my sister was already on her second dose and she said it made her arm hurt so bad. but i am good with pain so i thought oh well whatever.
the nurse already seemed like she didnt know what she was doing, so i was a little scared. but she pricked me with the needle and i thought ok this isnt so bad. and then she told me " ok im going to put the medicine in now....." and i thought ok have at it i dont care... and WOW the pain i felt was insane. it only lasted for three seconds thats why i WILL be getting the other three injections but if im sorry the shot IS painful.... it feels like someone is piercing through your muscle with fire and even after a day it was still swollen and red.. and i got little bumps on the site where they gave me a shot. and it hurt bad. my mom put a warm rag on my arm for a while and it helped with the pain and i took some advil.
honestly the pain is worth it. i rather have all three shots than get cancer and die. the pain is only for like 3 seconds but it really knocks the wind out of you. but YOU WILL BE FINE... ok?? i just hope that from reading all these stories i dont get a lump on my arm or something...
i got it on my right arm but i think i will be getting it on the other arm next time in november when my next appt for the injection is. its still sooo sore. but worth it!!!
i would def reccomend it.
and i never once passed out. i passed out once in my life from an injection and that was one on my butt. this was painful as hell but nothing too crazy.
go for it!!!!

I am 26 and have had the first Gardasil shot on my obgyn's recommendation. Yes, it hurt pretty badly and I can still feel the shot location a month later. Other than the pain and slight swelling, I did not have any side effects.
My main concern now though, is the effect on my future fertility. I had to have my right ovary removed several years ago so am very concerned about my ability to become pregnant in the future. I can't seem to find any information on whether Gardasil has any effects on fertility. One blog that I read said that the aluminum ingredient in the shot can have a negative effect on fertility, but I'm not sure what to believe. Any input?
Also, are there any negative side effects to having only one shot and not completing the entire course? I really don't think I want to get the next two.

My mother made me get this shot.
The first one was awful. I have never felt such pain from any vaccination before. No one likes getting stuff poked into them, but the year before I entered college I received 5 shots at my checkup and none of them were as bad as Gardasil. I had intense pain in the injection site for about 2 weeks after receiving it.
My second shot was so bad my body temperature rose, I had the most massive headache I have ever felt, blacked out and then fainted. After that shot I had severe pain in my arm for 2 months.
I am refusing to get the 3rd shot.
I've been doing a lot of research on this lately and it does not seem worth it to me when they do no even know how long this will last. There are no long-term case studies to find out how effective it will be. If you are not having unprotected sex right now then what is the problem?
(Note: These accounts have not been edited for any spelling or grammatical errors. They have been taken as is from the website.)
I have used this site in a previous article. It seems that the reactions to this vaccine just keep pouring in. It seems that the most common long-term side effect is the injection site pain. One of the postings mentioned the possibility of surgery to remove the painful lump. Some of the posts mention how this pain has hampered their ability to do normal tasks like pulling up their pants or raising their arm.
One of the concerns mentioned was about fertility. I did my due diligence and wanted to see if there was anything reported. Once again, unfortunately, this is what I found.
The website is Vaccination Information Service, located in Australia. Here is an excerpt from an article called "Cervical Cancer Vaccine" "A vaccine that is claimed to prevent cancer is causing damage that is a precursor to cancer?" written by Bronwyn Hancock 20 August 2007
http://www.vaccination.inoz.com/cervical_cancer.html
Naturopath and Iridologist Michael Blake, of Natures Cure Pty Ltd in Dandenong, Melbourne (web site http://www.naturaltherapypages.com.au/therapist/6025) is very concerned at what he has seen in the irises of four girls recently and his conscience will not allow him to stay silent.
In the area of the iris that corresponds to the uterus, in three of the girls he saw tissue damage, and in the fourth he saw drug residue. In each of the four cases, on reporting back to the patient what he was observing, he was informed that the girl had recently received the cervical cancer vaccine. All were virgins.
Tissue damage in the uterus is what he sees in women who have had such things as abortions and prolapses, and can be a precursor to cancer. It can also cause infertility — as it can prevent the embryo from being able to hold on to the uterus wall. It also often results in lack of sensitivity with sexual intercourse, pain, discomfort and/or frequent discharges.
Note that it has already been observed that one of the ingredients in the vaccine, polysorbate 80, has been observed to cause infertility in mice. Add to that borax, which is used to kill ants, add neurotoxic immune system sensitizer aluminium hydroxyphosphate, and directly inject all of that and any viral material (which is not proven to be in a harmless form) past the very important natural lines of defense in the immune system, then what do you think we are asking for, trouble or protection? I can't tell you what to do — you must figure it out for yourself.
When I read the above excerpt that states borax, I had an OH MY GOD experience. What if borax is an ingredient in this vaccine??? I had to find out immediately. What I found out made me absolutely, positively, completely disgusted, angry, sick and totally felt misguided, lied to, taken advantage of by all the powers that are trying to push this awful, dangerous, hazardous vaccine with their treacherous, deceitful, double-crossing of the female population of the world.
In my first article dated February 6, 2007, I listed the ingredients of this vaccine.
The ingredients of Gardasil.
Each 0.5-mL dose of the vaccine contains approximately 225 mcg of aluminum (as amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate adjuvant), 9.56 mg of sodium chloride, 0.78 mg of L-histidine, 50 mcg of polysorbate 80, 35 mcg of sodium borate, and water for injection. The product does not contain a preservative or antibiotics.
I have highlighted sodium borate. This is borax people. We are putting a cleaning agent into our children. OH MY DEAR GOD!!!!!!! This is what Wikipedia has to say about sodium borate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_borate
Borax (from Persian burah[1][2]), also called sodium borate, or sodium tetraborate, or disodium tetraborate, is an important boron compound, a mineral, and a salt of boric acid. It is usually a white powder consisting of soft colorless crystals that dissolve easily in water.
Borax has a wide variety of uses. It is a component of many detergents, cosmetics, and enamel glazes. It is also used to make buffer solutions in biochemistry, as a fire retardant, as an anti-fungal compound for fiberglass, as an insecticide, as a flux in metallurgy, and as a precursor for other boron compounds.
Flux
A mixture of borax and ammonium chloride is used as a flux when welding iron and steel. It lowers the melting point of the unwanted iron oxide (scale), allowing it to run off. Borax is also used mixed with water as a flux when soldering jewelry metals such as gold or silver. It allows the molten solder to flow evenly over the joint in question. Borax is also a good flux for 'pre-tinning' tungsten with zinc — making the tungsten soft-solderable.[4]
Food additive
Borax is used as a food additive in some countries with the E number E285, but is banned in the United States. Its use is similar to salt, and it appears in French and Iranian caviar.
Other uses
Boric acid, sodium borate, and sodium perborate are estimated to have a lethal dose (LD50) from 0.1 to 0.5 g/kg in humans[verification needed][5]. These substances are toxic to all cells, and have a slow excretion rate through the kidneys. Kidney toxicity is the greatest, with liver fatty degeneration, cerebral edema, and gastroenteritis. A reassessment of boric acid/borax by the United States Environmental Protection Agency Office of Pesticide Programs found potential developmental toxicity (especially effects on the testes).[6] Boric acid solutions used as an eye wash or on abraded skin are known to be especially toxic to infants, especially after repeated use because of its slow elimination rate.[7]
Our government funded FDA is allowing us to inject our children with a substance that has been banned in the United States of America as a food additive. What is the difference between eating something which is ingesting it or injecting it into our blood stream? NOTHING!!!!
Because of this new finding I am demanding that Gardasil be removed from the shelf of every doctor's office, clinic, etc. I am also demanding that charges be brought up against Merck for creating a public health hazard, totally damaging the public trust, assault and murder. I choose murder because of the 11 young people that have died.
I have to end this article now because I am too upset to continue.
May your God bless you and you are in my prayers.

I choose murder because of the 11 young people that have died.
I have to end this article now because I am too upset to continue.
May your God bless you and you are in my prayers.
