Thanks for feedback ! Doctor dismissed the Garadasil reaction, but I have since read up on the connection between guillain-barre and HPV . Forgot to mention that I have been under an unusual lot of stress recently, and of course he latched on to that. He said my symptoms were probably caused by stress. I suppose it's possible? My numbness and tingling symptoms have not worsened in these 2 1/2 weeks since the vaccine, nor have they gone away, but I will go back to him, bring it up and try for a neurology referral. Thanks again.

The symptom is dysesthesia, and while it may lead to nothing, bring up gardasil and possible connection to guillain-barre syndrome. Gardasil is so new that the side-effects are not greatly know and most have been explained off as other things. But, go see him, tell him your symptoms, and mention it. If he thinks there is a connection he will refer you, fast. If he doesn't hear you, ask him for a reference. Also, doctors love educated but not preachy patients, so look up as much as you can about gardasil, guillain-barre, and dysesthesia. Don't be an alarmist but do all this quick. Diagnosis, if this is the case, is key.
