Need help and reassurance, possible Chlmadyia?

Ok, I screwed up huge on a trip and had unprotected sex while away from my wife.  The girl said she is clean and I want to beleive her, said she hasnt had sex for over 4 months, etc.  But now besides feeling like a huge loser for being unfaithful to my wife I am worried bout catching an STD.  I have had clymadia as a kid, 20 years ago, and vaguly recall its symptoms.  I dont seem to have any symptoms, NO burning while peeing, or puss/discharge.  The only thing is the odd time I feel some and I mean mild tenderness in my testicles, no sweeling that I can notice, but they dont hurt to touch or roll in your fingers?  Does this sound like a STD or is it just stress on what i have done to my wife?  As what i read i should have pain or discharge for an std, and sore testicles are very rare, adn they dont hurt all the time.
Please tell me what you think this might be.

Why not get tested just to be sure.  No matter what anyone tells you on this forum, you are still going to be concerned about this encounter.  Just go and get tested and then you'll know for sure.  Since you did have unprotected sex with someone other than your wife, i'd suggest getting tested so that in case you have something, you won't pass it on.

Also, just b/c someone tells you that they are clean means nothing.  They can be lying or they themselves might not know they're infected.  Just get tested, and try not to cheat on your wife, or at least use condoms if you ever decide to.

Vague pain in your testicles is not really a sign of an STD, if you had an actual infection causing swelling it would be noticeable.  

However, lack of symptoms does not mean lack of infection.  Though I don't think your symptoms point to anything, I'd really recommend you get a STD screening because you did have some risk.  Better to error on the safe side.
