Worried about herpes and other std's from oral sex

5 days ago I had unprotected oral sex with a girl I later found out was an adult performer (porn star).   She performed fellatio on me, and I performed cunnlingus on her.  There was no other sexual contact.  I understand the risk of most stds are quite low from this encounter, but what are my odds for herpes?  She did not have any visible sores on her lips or genitals.  I have been tested in the past, and I did not have either strain of herpes before.

For what it's worth, I did ask her the next day if she had it, and she said no, but I am aware she could have it and not realize it.  From what I understand, they are tested once a month for most stds, but not herpes.

I believe it was Rocco Siffredi who said in one interview, that basically everyone "in the business" has herpes.

But seriously speaking, the risk from a single exposure is low.

I'm going through a herpes scare myself as we speak (going on week 8). If you don't develop any symptoms in the next few weeks, you're probably in the clear. But it is easier said than done to stay calm.

Try to learn from my mistake and don't inspect your Johnson too much, just live normally and if you get any symptoms, see a doctor.
