Freaking Out! Help! Herpes?

About 4 days ago I had unprotected oral sex from a stripper. She said she didn't have any stds (if I take her at her word). So far no redness or lesions or burning while I urinate, but my penis is very sensitive and tender with a dull pain. I also have a sore throat. I'm scheduled to have blood work done in a couple more weeks when the tests would show antibodies, but until then I'm freaking out. Are these the symptoms of a herpes outbreak? The feeling in my penis is very real, but I wonder if it is at least heigtened by anxiety since it seems worse or at least I notice it more when I get really worried about contracting the virus. I know the posts on here say oral sex is low risk, but I'm just not so sure. Anyone's thoughts?
