Possible Exposure
Hello,
I had unprotected oral sex with a woman. My doctor gave me 2 doses of 1 gram z-pack. I took the first dose on a thursday and the next one wednesday morning. He did a blood test for HIV, Herpes and Syphillis. They came negative. This test was done 6 days after the incident. On friday evening, I started having some symptoms (possible). I have burning sensation on the scrotum area and frequent urination.
I am very worried what this could be. The doctor suggested not to worry about this. It is unlikely that I have something. I think that he is down playing the risk.
Anybody, please advice.

Someone please reply to my post. I am feeling very scared and cannot control my anxiety. The pain is definitely present and it is not a psychological thing. These symptoms don't seem to match with herpes.
Any idea what this could be?

The reason why I am still concerned is because I have the following symptoms. I was not too clear about describing my current symptoms.
1) Frequent urination and constant urge to urinate.
2) Burning sensation in the scrotum and bottom testicle area.
3) Slight fever and fatigue.
4) Some discomfort in the tip of penis. Urinating relieves this.
I read that herpes does not present symptoms all the time. This is what makes me the most concerned.

Hello
Your doctor is NOT downplaying the risk.
I did not read anything alarming for STDs. Though you did put yourself at risk for all STDs, the risk is rather low. Conclusive tests results for HIV and herpes can be obtained at the 3 month mark.
