Here's some information on gonorrhea symptoms from this MedHelp page: http://www.medhelp.org/medical-information/show/1306/Gonorrhea?page=1#sec_16926

Symptoms of gonorrhea usually appear 2 - 5 days after infection, however, in men, symptoms may take up to a month to appear. Some people do not have symptoms. They may be completely unaware that they have caught the disease, and therefore do not seek treatment. This increases the risk of complications and the chances of passing the infection on to another person.

Symptoms in men include:

Burning and pain while urinating
Increased urinary frequency or urgency
Discharge from the penis (white, yellow, or green in color)
Red or swollen opening of penis (urethra)
Tender or swollen testicles
Sore throat
Symptoms in women can be very mild or non-specific, and may be mistaken for another type of infection. They include:

Vaginal discharge
Burning and pain while urinating
Increased urination
Sore throat
Painful sexual intercourse
Severe pain in lower abdomen (if the infection spreads to the fallopian tubes and stomach area)
Fever (if the infection spreads to the fallopian tubes and stomach area)
