How did I get infected with gonorrhea while using a condom?

I was diagnosed by my doctor with gonorrhea. I had a condom all the time when I had oral and vaginal sex with a csw. My doctor told me that since she put the condom through her mouth some saliva might have dripped thereby the only logical explanation on how i got infected. But I read somewhere here that you can't be infected with gonorrhea through saliva. I begin to worry that there might be a tear in the condom as to the reason why I got infected.

So is the saliva scenario a logical and possible explanation?

Hi jessy, I think I'm finally finding your argument logical. The csw did give me a handjob without a condom after the protected oral and vaginal sex. She used a lubricant because I did not ejaculate I don't know what it was exactly thereby making nonchlymidial ngu possible. The only thing that making me doubt that argument is dr. Hook and handsfield has repeatedly said that chemical irritations causing ngu won't infect you for too long.

You don't even have a positive gonorrhea test so we can't say what you were infected with if anything.

Hi Grace, can I have your opinion how did I got infected? Do you think the saliva scenario of my doctor was possible and logical or do you agree with jessy or condom failure as the only logical explanation?

your symptoms do not sound like herpes.
