Gonnorhea Reninfection??

I was treated Tuesday for Gonnorgea and Clamydia, injection and Zithromax. My bf had been taking Cipro for a UTI until results came back he was positive, he was put on Zithromax and Suprax Thursday and finished his Zithro yesterday, I have also been on Cipro this week, which I will still be on until Saturday. If we had sex Thursday, could he reinfect me, or do we both have enough antibiotics in our system to pretty much block any bacteria from passing back and forth. I'm also scheduled for test of cure tomorrow.

Both can pick up the dead cells that might still be there.

That's where I'm a little confused, the clinic that treated me says to test for cure tomorrow or after. Is there a specific test that would be accurate for that 7 days post treatment, or am I just going to get a false positive due to testing so close to treatment? They said it would be a swab instead of urine test. Is there a difference in these two?

Probably ok, but do run the risk for reinfection. Advised to wait 7 days after medication for unprotected sex.
It can take 2-3 weeks after medication for tests to come out negative.
