Kiwi - you're right, you definitely have to watch who you talk to and what information you rely on. I went to a National Cervical Cancer Conference this past weekend and they mention a case that was reported as "Young Woman dies within hours of getting HPV Vaccine." ...what they fail to mention is that it was in a car crash - completely unrelated to the injection itself.

There IS a lot of debate going on, but we're hoping that its much more available to everyone soon - it saves lives, for sure.

there's a lot of debate abt the HPV vaccine but US laws require me to take it. so i did. i'm allergic to many stuffs but i'm ok with it. i took it at my usual doctor, so the nurses know what i'm going thru. it's not even as painful as doing blood test. b4 i took it i searched online n really wish i dont have to take it. but talking to the doctor i know most just arent true. :)
