Un-protected oral - test or not???

I am a male.  11 days ago on November 22 I received unprotected oral sex (blow job) along with a massage.  I am married and I have learned my lesson and am extremely regretful for letting the massage go this far.  So far I have had no discharge or flu like symptoms.  I have had a little light (dull) burn in my urethra near the tip of my penis after urination, but it only lasts for a short period and goes away.  I have had no trouble urinating.   I have had some light, but not persistent itching in my pubic area.  I have one spot that is in my pubic area, but very near the base of (not on the shaft of) my penis.  This spot is not a sore.  It is slightly red and looks more like dry skin.  It does itch frequently, but not constantly.  It does not ooze, does not burn, is not painful, and is not obvious unless you really look for it.  The skin on my shaft and head of my penis feels a little raw from time to time since the incident, but again not persistent.  

I have read a lot and am concerned the most about HSV (herpes).  I have been very anxious and from reading I hope all my symptoms are a result of genital focused anxiety.  

There was no kissing at all and no other intercourse period.  The masseuse did not even take her clothes off.  She did finish the job and I ejaculated and she swallowed.  

I am very worried.  Please advise on if I need to be tested and if so for what.  

Thanks in advance.

As you recommend I will get checked ASAP for gono and chlamydia.  If I can't get in right away how long before it is hard for their test to be accurate?  or is there a time limit?

Hi, cardynal is basicly correct with the wait and see but thats only for those without a regular partner. Since your married, you should be tested for her protection before being intimate. The risk for unprotected oral would be Gono, Chlamydia, Herpes and Syphilis.

Forgot to add--I don't have the dry skin issue but I do have the post-urination itch.

Basically have the same experience as you man. Everyone here will tell you that you have nothing, and adopt a wait and see approach to ensure that you don't have anything.

I am waiting a full month for gonorrhea and chlamydia testing, and will then see a urologist about the itching. If he tells me I don't have herpes, that's what I'll go with.

More experienced folk will chime in after me, but I've been panicked since my unprotected oral from an acquaintance and everyone has repeatedly told me I have nothing, and I have close-to the same symptoms as you.
