std or what?

Hi!
Sorry for my english skills. Note that i was working hard in the warehouse before described event. 5 weeks ago i had protected vaginal (condom broke) and unprotected oral sex with prostitute. About 5 days later i was feeling terrible cold in my arms wich i have never experienced before. There was a burning feeling in hands also. I decided to visit a std specialist doctor. He told me that it is propably stress but i have to make tests. I got tested for syphilis, chlamydia trachomatis (blood test) and hiv 3 weeks after risky event. All results came negative. However during second week after contact i started to hear that my joints are making noise, I started to get muscle twitching all over body.  Doctor told me to eat 3 pills of Summamed so i did. Last days im feeling terrible. Im having knees pain, muscle twitching, slightly arm muscle pain, sometimes unkown parestesias (slighlty burning all over body for short time in random place including head) + sometimes im feeling cold. Ive made standard blood and urine tests. I visited 2 more doctors inluding my neightbour wich told me that Im stressed out. Im scared to death. Yesterday i was feeling tenderness with my left  testicle so went to the hospital and doctor prescribed me augmencin.  Does that symptoms are simillar to common stds like chlamydia or other?

Yes but It would  often be accompanied with a fever as the body is building antibodies mounting a defense as well as a blister type sore showing up in 3 to 13 days or so. Test for herpes in 3 months post exposure if your concerned.

Thanks for quick reply. Does herpes can make joint/muscle pains in 1-3 weeks?

Hi, no they do not. More common symptoms for std,s would be urethra irritation and a white penis discharge.
