You can be blood tested for syphilis, herpes and hiv. Everything else requires either urine or a sample from the site. Since this was oral sex, you'd need to have your throat swabbed.
for more info on std's, how and when to test for them, check out www.ashastd.org for more info.
You also need to learn a lot more if you think that women in their 30's don't get excited and wet!

Sorry, but I guess my real question is this: Does the blood test tell if I only have genital STDs while the throat swab would tell if I had oral gonorrhea and chlamydia?
Don't mean to make excessive posts, just trying to get all the info, plus I don't want to tick off my doctor.
Thanks.
Nope, not unless you have doubt in your head and want to silence it.
Ok, thanks. I was just curious after reading. I have been having "issues" with my mouth and throat starting at about 30 days after this incident. Also, some digestive/bowel issues.
Pending the results of this STD panel, would you recommend getting a throat swab?
you did not really have a risk for clymida or gonorrhea. but if you must test then a throat swab. syphilis is picked up with a blood test
