Hi, I came across a web site devoted to problems young women were experiencing after receiving this vaccination and some were having digestive problems in addition to the fainting and seizures. I was wondering if anyone here found that their problems began with this vaccination.

Here is a link:

I had the HPV Vaccination last year. I have had several friends who have had it as well and none of us have had a problem with it. We've done several stories on this where I work and from what I understand there are more sucess stories with this vaccine than there are problems. It's a personal choice though if you want to get it or not. I was also concerned but it worked out for me and I'm ultimately happy I did it.

My Celiac problems I think started when I was in high school after I had Mono.

Thanks for your response, :) I am so glad that you didn't react negatively to the HPV.

Personally, I am way past the age for such a vaccination but I have nieces and young friends that may receive it and some of what I am reading really scares me. It made me wonder if anyone is showing up here with digestive issues that she is being told have nothing to do with the vaccine but started with it.

Perhaps the scariest is that if a woman wants to immigrate to the US she must have it.

I got this vaccination in 2009 when I was 20 and it completely altered my life. Made my celiac disease so much worse, sleep 15-18 hours a day, SIBO, it has completely altered my life since getting this vaccination. My doctor has two twin girls about my age and they both have digestion problems after receiving gardasil

Thank you I have a young daughter and have wondered this exact question posed by the poster and your response has given me great pause about this issue which may come up in years to come. I am sorry to hear this wreak havoc on your life, but simultaneously thank you for sharing this detail to help those of us that have likely been decades misdiagnosed celiacs now raising children. Thank you.

I'm a male, bit i have heard a ton of horror stories about gardisil. Many teens have died from it. 

My Dr has advised me not to take any medicine what so ever. He says its almost impossible to find medicine that won't bother my guts. He said i could have a pharmacist specially make gluten free medicine, but hes afraid any medicine at all will cause problems with my severely damaged intestines. Theres just to many unsafe chemicals in medicine

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
