Should I Continue HPV Vaccination 2nd Dose After Getting A Rash On The Torso And Being Doagnosed With Pityriasis Rosea After The 1st Dose?

HPV vaccine and Pityriasis rosea 8 years ago after giving the birth I was diagnosed with cervical abnormalities and tested positive for HPV. I have undergone a laser treatment. However, recently I have had again a positive test for HPV and my gynecologist insisted that I should have HPV4 vaccine. He thinks that recurrence of HPV it is due to my low immunity and that having a vaccine is the only way how I can get some HPV antibodies. About 4 weeks ago I had my first shot, thought I initially felt ok, now I have developed a rash over my torso as well as cheeks!! and was diagnosed with Pityriasis rosea. I don t know what to do about the second shot. Should I wait until this rash is cleared (it could be up to 8-12 weeks)? Or should I go ahead and risk more problems or just not to continue with this vaccine?
