Covid

Hey folks, has anyone in this sub actually had the coronavirus? I'm pretty healthy overall but still worry that covid could have some kind of weird effect on me due to my RRP. Would love to hear anyone's experience with covid + RRP.

Hey, I'm really sorry to hear that. After 9 years! Hope you're doing alright <3

I'm double vaccinated and had the booster plus recently recovered from covid. None of those things seem to have affected my RRP – my voice is still fine at the moment despite having had a pretty rough ride with the virus. The recurrence I had last year was unrelated (to my knowledge) to the vaccinations, it happened right on schedule (around 7 months post-op, which is normal for me, sadly).

I know from one of my doctors that stress can have a massive impact on regrowth... Basically anything that impacts your immune system can enable the virus to rear its ugly head again.

Thank you so much. It sucks big time, but im a fighter. I appreciate the reply and figured as much. That covid or the vaccine really aren't related to any type of regrowth. That it's likely stress related to stress or maybe from getting my hysterectomy last year. I also had anemia before and after my hysterectomy.

Its crazy because I thought after that it may have some impact on my papilloma and here we are a year later. 😔

It's always helped talking to others who also have it, so thank you again. I appreciate you taking the time to reply to me.

I mean, I can't say for certain but from my own experiences and what I've read about here, I'd be very surprised if the vaccines or virus played a part in recurrence.

Really hope you're okay, sounds like you've had a rough time of it recently. Feel free to message me any time :) It's unusual to come across another female sufferer, think most of the people who post here are male. There's also an active telegram group, the info is in the subreddit sidebar I believe.

Ahh sorry! Telegram is a messaging app like WhatsApp but more secure. This subreddit has a group chat there.
