Is my pet snake making me sick after kissing and sharing my bed?

Question

I kissed my girl pet rat snake on her lips because I have been wanting to tame her plus she is getting tamed and I have not known that they can cause diseases. I also been having aching problems in my body where everything hurts so bad. Is this the sign of a disease from her. I love animals and reptiles, I also have been body training her on a sheet, she is a smart girl. And her name is Bubbles. What should I do? Because I have been sharing my bed with her, kissing her, not washing my hands

Reptiles do harbour a lot of bacteria such as salmonella. If you feel unwell it could be unrelated but best to visit your Dr to be safe. In future I would avoid kissing her and make sure you wash your hands after handling her or her habitat. I would advise against sleeping with r as you could accidentally roll onto her.
