Was my pee test good enough for sti?
Hello there. I had sex with a sex trade worker about a month ago. After 15 mins of sex the condom broke. I pulled out with in 3 seconds cause we both felt it broke. She finished me off with a hand job. I took a shower immediate after. I took a urine test a week after my exposer for bacteria cause I felt very little burning when I went pee. It could of been in my head. The test came back negative. I did not tell the doc about my in counter. I just told him about the little burning. He said he will test me for any bacterias. Would this have covered sti testing? And how accurate would it be? I also took biaxin for a throat problem a week ago. Doc gave me 500mg pills twice a day for 5 days. and I took them for 3 days then stopped for 2 day then finished the last 2 days after cause I found out that I have to do all of them. Would this have cured anyt sti? Sorry for long question doc just want everything answered at once.

You should always tell the doctor if you are at risk or otherwise concerned about STD. Not knowing that, it sounds like your doctor did standard tests for urinary tract infection (UTI), which doesn't necessarily include STD testing. Ideally, all doctors would routinely include STD testing in this situation, but many do not. You should ask the doctor whether the tests included gonorrhea and chlamydia, but my guess is they didn't. Also, evaluating for NGU requires close physical exam of the penis, looking for discharge and inflammation.
Based on your exposure and symptoms, you probably had no STD, and if you did, Biaxin would usually clear chlamydia, NGU, and maybe gonorrhea. To be 100% certain, if not tested for these before you were treated, you should be tested a couple of weeks after you finish the Biaxin.
