Famciclovir - Do I have herpes now?

I started seeing this girl in November 2015. We went on couple dates and eventually had sex for the first and only time on January 9, 2016. During intercourse i started with a condom but it eventually became unprotected in the latter part. I also performed oral on her. I asked her if she had anything and she told me no and since she works in science lab testing pills. I was comforted that she was sexually conscious and safe as it relates to STDs. We stopped talking after awhile and until recently she invited to her place with some friends, while using her bathroom I saw she had a priscription bottle for famciclovir in her medicine cabinet. I looked it up on my phone and saw that this is medication for genital herpes. I am now freaking out because i performed oral and had unprotected sex. I'm also scared of HIV since she lied when I asked her if she had anything. I have felt some periodic burning in my groin and the tip of my penis. But I see no blisters or sores. It has now been 7 weeks since risky exposure and I'm scared to go get tested because I'm terrified of the results.

With no symptoms related to herpes then infection was extremely unlikely (it was probably not more than 1 in 5,000 in the first place.)

Some people do keep that drug for use with an oral infection so do not jump to conclusions.
