Vaccine: HPV4
Symptoms: Acne, Dizziness, Headache, Hypoaesthesia, Insomnia
Clinical narrative: I received the Guardasil shot series over the course of 6 months. After the first shot given in  May, I was nauseous and vomited. I also developed severe facial acne that I'm still experiencing, two weeks after the first shot.  I don't remember any problems after the second shot in August. Severe symptoms started on the evening the third shot was administered December 14, 2009. I had constant tingling in my right limbs (arm, all the way down to the tips of my fingers, and leg, from the knee down to the foot): the shot was given in my right arm. I was still able to walk and use my arm. It was not a sharp pain, just constant. By Thursday, Dec. 17 at 4 A.M., the tingling was prevalent in all my limbs and my feet felt numb. I went to the emergency room on Thursday, Dec. 17, 3 days after the shot as the tingling was worse and not subsiding. They ran a CT scan to rule out shunt problems since I have a VP shunt.  All was fine with the shunt. On Friday Dec. 18, I went to another emergency room so I could be evaluated by a neurologist. He ran reflex tests and everything was working well.  He diagnosed neuropathy and said he thought it would eventually subside.  That night I experienced swimming vision for a few minutes and a headache. I had trouble sleeping each night, unable to get comfortable in bed; the tingling seemed to be worse when lying down. The next day I felt dizzy, had an intermittent headache, and experienced vision problems if there were bright lights.  By Sunday, the symptoms became less severe and over the course of the next week, diminished completely.
