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

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
