    No way to know- immune systems are not created equal, whether human or snake. And you're no "bother"- The main thing is to keep a listen for any changes, & try not to imagine* an increase. *It's normal to be just a little paranoid... It might also help (IF it's actually an RI) to raise the temperatures just by about 2 or 3* if you can- that's been known to help an RI. (Stay under 90* max on warm side- & pay attention- if your snake totally avoids the warm side & hugs the water bowl or dives in, she's likely too warm. Keep a close watch on the temps for safety- snakes always need a "cooler" side for safety & health.)
