Symptoms: Lumbar puncture abnormal, Mass, Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, Serology negative
Clinical narrative: Information has been received from a physician concerning a 13 years old female patient, one of 28 week preemie twins with asthma and a history of bilateral sinus surgery in December 2011 and no drug reactions/allergies who on 02-NOV-2011, was vaccinated with the first dose of GARDASIL (lot 668261/1397AA) 0.5 ml IM. On 16-JAN-2012, the patient received the second dose of GARDASIL (lot # not reported). Secondary suspect vaccinations included the second dose of VARIVAX (Merck) (lot #, dose and route not reported) given on 16-Jan-2012. Concomitant medications included FLOVENT, ZYRTEC and montelukast sodium (MSD). Physician reported that the patient experienced a 5 inch in diameter injection site reaction in the same arm where the patient had received GARDASIL on 16-JAN-2012. The injection site reaction began the evening of 16-JAN-2012. Physician described the injection site reaction as: red, hot and tender. The patient was treated with clindamycin (manufacturer and dose unspecified) and BENADRYL (dose unspecified), but the injection site reaction did not resolve until 2 weeks after 16-JAN-2012. It was reported that beginning on 16-JAN-2012 in the evening, the patient had experienced persistent headaches which woke her at night. The patient had not had a "headache-free" day since the patient had received GARDASIL on 16-JAN-2012. The patient had not attended school since 16-JAN-2012 (also reported as 18-JAN-2012) and was admitted to the hospital from 05-FEB-2012 to 09-FEB-2012 for a DHE 45 (manufacturer and dose unspecified) trial to treat the patient's headaches. The DHE 45 trial did not effectively treat the patient's headaches. The patient was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) on 27-MAR-2012, so that a "spinal tap" could be completed. The patient was diagnosed with "pseudo tumor" due to elevated intracranial pressure, which was "30". 10 ml of spinal fluid was removed, and the patient's intracranial pressure came down to "17". Spinal tap and serology were negative. The patient was receiving acetazolamide (MSD) and had experienced some relief headache. Physician reported that the patient had been treated by neurologist. Physician also reported that she suspected that the patient might have lyme disease. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood work were performed (result not provided). Physician also mentioned that the patient has a twin who received the second dose of GARDASIL on 16-JAN-2012 (WAES # 1203USA04648). At the time of the report, the patient's outcome for headaches, "pseudo tumor" and lyme disease was unknown. Follow up information has been received from the physician who reported that patient had been sent home from the hospital and the lyme test was negative. Attempts are being made to obtain additional identifying information to distinguish the individual patients mentioned in this report. Additional information will be provided if available. This is one of several reports received from the same source. The patient was admitted to hospital.

Clinical narrative: Information has been received from a physician and a Registered Nurse concerning a 18 year old (also reported as 19 year old) female patient with well controlled juvenile seizures/seizure disorder since childhood and anxiety/depression who on 19-JAN-2012, was vaccinated with the first dose of GARDASIL, 0.5 ml, IM (site of administration not reported, lot number 672232/1495AA). Concomitant therapy included PROZAC, LAMICTAL and LO/OVRAL. It was reported that the patient had two mini seizures between 19-JAN-2012 and 21-MAR-2012 and the seizures were under control at time of gynecological visit. The two mini seizures were experienced at home, no treatment was necessary, in fact the patient did not see her neurologist about them. If the neurologist would give the written approval, the GARDASIL series would continue. It was reported that the therapy was not discontinued. At the time of the report the patient recovered. Upon internal review, mini seizures were determined to be an other important medical event. NO further information is available.

Symptoms: Cardiac stress test normal, Chest pain, Fatigue, Headache, Memory impairment
Clinical narrative: As a flight engineer, after a mission briefing in Oct of 1990, we were told that the med techs wanted to talk with us. The first thing they said was to put away your shot records, we are giving you a shot. If you refuse you will be escorted by the 2 security policeman that was with them. We took the shots and they did not tell us what the shots were. Nor did they tell us anything to stay away from, do or look for any side effects. This was real odd since whenever a flight crew member takes any shots, they cannot fly for at least 24 hours as per regulations. After the mission I went home for 2 days and my son was conceived.  Around the same time I started to have chest pains, fatigue, headaches, and short term memory problems. I have these same conditions today. When I went to the hospital, they gave me a stress test and I was good to go, not a problem and I was never given any shots. My son has always had problems and is fully documented. Problems with mainly Tourette syndrome and severe headaches. When my son was 12 years old, he had his first seizure, and they keep coming for 15 days. Finally he had to be put on a respirator and on January 1st of 2004 we had the respirator taken out at 3:15pm, at 3:30 my son was pronounced dead. While in the hospital the day before Christmas eve, the doctors did a biopsy on his brain.  On my son's death certificate he had Refractory status epilepticus for 15 days. And, he had Cortical dysplasis (with gliosis) for 12 years, a birth defect. When I went to look this up on the internet in 2004, Gulf war syndrome was number one on the list. I had contacted my official. To ask him to find out what the shots were, After 2 requests, he never got back to me, but he did ask for my support for his next race.  Well the bottom line is he died of Gulf War syndrome.  12 years old and died of Gulf War Syndrome, and to this day the agency doesn't count my son as a casualty of war, or their stupidly. And now, to make things worse, the agency wants to experiment on giving children the same vaccine. Unbelievable. However, it is true that the agency can test on people. BUT, they have to tell them, track them and update them. From what I found out is that they found the average city. They tracked the patients' hospitals and for 10 years and found no difference. They problem was, the Gulf War was mainly a reserve and guard war and we were released and could not use our normal hospitals and doctors. And if we did ask at facility, we would have been taken off reserve status and fired, losing out on our time served for retirement. If you would like the documentation of any of this, just ask.
