Vaccine: HPV9
Symptoms: Fatigue, Fear, Feeling abnormal, Full blood count normal, Hallucination
Clinical narrative: Within 3-4 days after the vaccine was given and for about two weeks afterward my daughter began to experience excruciating headaches that would not go away with advil. She also experienced severe eye pain, dizziness, nausea, stomach ache, body aches and then, difficulty breathing. When she started having difficulty breathing she was also very fatigued. She had difficulty standing up due to the extreme fatigue. She would get light-headed when she tried to stand up. She also complained of extreme pain behind and around her eyes and blurry vision. She had increased sensitivity to light and sound. She complained of tingling in her legs, especially at night. In the first week that the symptoms started she also had a loss of sense of self for about 30 seconds. During those 30 seconds she did not know who she was, who I was or where she was (in our home). This only occured one time. She later began to experience anxiety and fear, followed by hallucinations. The symptoms subsided after about two weeks but came back two weeks later and lasted for another week. Until January, 2018, every month for about a week she had these symptoms. They subsided after I began to put her on a specific vitamin protocol and low-histamine diet. She now suffers a continuous ongoing low-grade headache most days but not the more extreme symptoms such as difficulty breathing, tingling in the legs, anxiety and hallucinations.

Clinical narrative: After receiving the GARDASIL vaccine, I had a routine pap smear at age 18. At this time, they found suspicious cells on my uterus, and recommended I get another pap smear every 6 months to 1 year. Every time I received a pap smear, I had concerning cells (they were monitoring for change that could indicate cancer). Had I never received this 3 series of injections, I would have had a normal pap smear. They were starting to lean towards the idea of biopsy in order to check for cancer.

Symptoms: Injection site pain, Pain, X-ray normal
Clinical narrative: Normal upper arm soreness after a flu vaccine for 2 days. The soreness then moved to muscle area in upper left arm. My arm hurts to move it upwards, outward from my body, and inward toward my body. This pain has been ongoing since October 21st, 2017. I went to the doctor and explained the pain and how I believe it's a result of the flu vaccine. Xrays were taken and they showed no problem. I was given a steroid shot which helped minimize the pain, but only temporarily.

Symptoms: Injection site pain
Clinical narrative: The flu shot was very painful in my right upper arm. The pain went away but then a few hours later my upper arm really started to hurt. There was no sign of swelling or redness yet intense pain deep in  my arm muscles. It has been 18 days of constant pain and no ALEVE or Ibuprofen has made any difference in the pain level. I try to keep moving it as I am afraid I will get a frozen shoulder from under-using it. I did mention it to my regular Dr. when I visited him the next day but I assumed the pain would get better but it has not. I think I have to go to a physical therapist for treatment as it is effecting my ability to use that arm well.

Symptoms: Body temperature increased, Chills, Exposure during pregnancy, Fatigue, Headache
Clinical narrative: Estimated due date of pregnancy is May 23, 2018. Adverse reaction began about 2-3 hours after the flu shot. It began with headache and nausea. I walked around for half an hour to help with the nausea thinking it was linked to the pregnancy and then started to feel exhausted. I laid down but stayed awake due to nausea. I started developing severe chills. I ran to the toilet and vomited (severe vomiting - never had that level of vomiting before). I laid back down in bed and had severe body aches and chills for several hours. I vomited again. I did not take any medications. I drank water, Gatorade and tried to eat some fruit. The one time I measured my temperature later that night, my temperature was at 101. I felt better the next morning and did not have a temperature. I have had a flu shot before but did not have this reaction. I called my doctor on the Tuesday after the reaction to report the reaction. She told me there was nothing to worry about. I am worried as I have never had this level of reaction to a vaccine before.
