IS IT ORAL HERPES ?

Sorry for the length but its urgent !

Ok , so i had unprotected oral sex with my exboyfriend about a month ago . Well , November 11th to be exact . There was no vaginal sex btw ! Just oral in which he did not cum in my mouth . . Im 16 and he was my first sexual partner . The whole incident was a mistake and we were under the influence of drugs and alcohol (i read somewhere that this increases your chances of an std . Is this true ?)The morning after i had a big bubble-like bump on my lip . I wasnt too worried and figured it was due to the pressure of the heavy kissing and lip biting . It didnt hurt and scabbed over and cleared in a few days . A week after that i experienced sore throat with bumps near the back of my tongue as well as down my throat . At the start they were painless but now they hurt when i drink carbonated drinks or eat spicy food . My tongue is pale with red dots on it and the veins under my tongue are now more prominent and dark purple . I also have two red bumps under my tongue . Ive had vaginal discharge and im not sure if its regular cleaning ...
I have recently started to have vaginal discomfort too . Itchiness mainly . Im super scared ! My sister took me to a health clinic and i got tested for HIV , Clamydia , and Syphilis . Ive been waiting for results for a week and i cannot wait any longer . What does this sound like to you ?? I can provide pics if needed .
Other symptoms include :
Chest pain
Swollen, red tonsils with white 'things' on them
Yellow stool
Diarrhea
Stomach discomfort (cramping)
Muscle aches
Bad breath

Please help ! If it is contagious i dont want to infect my friends and family . I thought oral sex was low to now risk ...

Well i went to a health clinic and they took a simple urine and blood test . They actually said if they DID NOT call then that was a good sign and i was clean . But that only makes me more nervous because it opens the possibility of more serious infections ! Thankyou Everyone For The Support . I think its time i have a sitdown talk with my parents and see a real doctor .. Wish Me Luck ...

Yes, you can acquire herpes from giving oral sex. I know two people who contracted HSV-2 in the mouth in this way. It's not common, but it can happen. There are official statistics for people who both carry and shed HSV-2 orally.

According to a recent (2008) study, HSV-2 sheds about 20% of days, and this statistic only refers to people who are asymptomatic (not experiencing symptoms at the time), so if he has genital HSV-2, he may have transmitted it to you even without symptoms. What's fortunate is that HSV-2 rarely recurs. If this is a primary oral HSV-2 episode, it will likely be your only one.

However, a month is a long time to have symptoms of a primary infection. What did your doctor say when s/he looked at your symptoms and you brought up the possibility of herpes?

The vaginal symptoms are not herpes if you only ever had oral sex with him. You would have had to have intercourse. Try not to worry until you get your results. Whatever it is will be treatable. Please be gentle with yourself.

Hi, first of all symptoms of any std,s dont show up the next day and your bubble is most likely from the act itself. If you did not give him a "deep throat" oral then the chances you contracted std,s like gono and chlamydia are close to zero as the back of the throat is where the infection would need contact

Your only real risk would be for herpes but if he did not have a obvious penis sore, the risk would also be close to zero as shedding dosenot occur that often.

Your other symptoms are not std related.
