Most people have had different side affects but mainly no more than head ache, fatigue, redness and pain
Ive had all my 3 shots and the first didnt hurt,
the second reeeeaalllllllly hurt and even for a few weeks after
and the third hurt for 15mins and was fine
if you are realllllllllly lethargic, then id check with a doctor if your really worried just to be safe, however
i think you will be fine

Firstly, the vaccine is against HPV or Human Papilloma Virus(genital warts), not cervical cancer.
HPV can in some cases lead to cervical cancer.
Attached is a link to the manufacturers site with patient information including side effects.

don't worry darling, it should wear off within 2 days,
if not,
consult ur local gp about getting ur blood pressure tested,
and ur iron level.
take care, ok?
