very worried

Hello everybody
Please excuse my  poor english
I am male,30 ,heterosexual, and live in Eastern Europe.
2 weeks ago I had unprotected vaginal and oral sex with a girl.It was a one night stand .
I feel very weak know, I lost my apetite and my urine is very dark.
I would like to do the following tests : HBSAg and HCV antibody test.
When can I do these tests to know for sure If I have something or not ? I am very scared .
I want to do these tests very soon, but when can I do them the sooner ?
What  are my risks for contracting the B or C hepatitic viruses statistically  speaking ?

Immediately get vaccinated for hepatitis B. And the HCV transmission is  possible only through blood. No vaccine.

HBV has a incubation period from 45 to 160 so maybe teh test should be done after this, anyway check with a doctor.

about the risks
- HCV - minimum,
- HBV - you had a considerable risk  - but even if you contact the virus you have 80 - 90% to get only the acute phase and clear after this.
