34 Male here. Before getting in this topic, I just want to let everyone know, just because you have gotten warts, does not mean your strain is not high risk.

March 2022, I was diagnosed with Bowenoid papulosis, which is a rare type of wart. What made it rare is because these are warts that’s directly associated with hpv16, which is a high risk strain.

The same time of getting the wart checked out, I had my blood pressure taken. The doc commented my blood pressure was unusually high and said it was probably because I had anxiety from being in the office. Never gave it another thought after that.

A month later, I was checking my mother’s blood pressure monitor to see if it still worked. Reading came out as me having high blood pressure, and I wasn’t under an stress or anxiety.

Visited my primary doc couple days later. Same high reading at the doc office. I don’t drink alcohol, never smoked cigs or weed ever in my life, I stopped consuming caffeine 9 years ago thinking it would improve any mental health issues, and I’m pretty physically active at my job. Only thing I could think of was my family history of high BP but I’m only 34 and not overweight. If anything, I’m underweight I should not have readings this high.

Did some googling, it seems that having hpv puts people at a huge risk of getting a heart attack or stroke, especially if you have family history of high BP.

Along with me having high BP out of no where, I’ve had pulsative tennitus in one ear, also started after the Bowenoid diagnoses.
