I had oral from my gf today and on doxycycline...should I be ok?

I am awaiting my tests from planned parenthood where they tested me b/c I have had a little discharge and burning when I pee at the tip of my urethra. I was given doxycycline. My g/f still hasn't been tested or given doxycycline and out of stupidity I let her give me unprotected oral today.

Even though I am on doxycycline(2nd day of 7) will I reinfect myself if she has chlamydia or something?...I am now going to hold off on any protected/unprotected sex until I get the results.

How many days of doxycycline is really needed? I will take all 7 days, but feel I have been cut short 2 days now  b/c of my stupidity.

I also took doxy for 7 days. The general consciouses is that Chlam. is NOT transmitted orally. Though they do recommend you stay away from sexual contact with someone for a week or so after you complete the meds....SO, if your GF knows about your situiation then you might as well just have her take the treatment as well if it worries you or you are unsure if you have transmitted it to her vaginally or not.
