Oral sex and scared

I gave a younger guy known to be promiscuous oral sex 12/24/14. On 1/27/2015 I noticed 3 small white spots on my right tonsil. I do however get tonsil stones and I usually remove them with a toothpick but these white spots will not move. I have been tested for all std's in the genital area(swab,blood, and urine) all negative and ask my doctor to do a throat swab but she declined. I've called several std clinics including planned parenthood and no one will test my throat. I never have unprotected vaginal intercourse with him only oral. I don't understand why noone will test my throat!! If I contracted a std from him orally I wouldn't want to pass it to anyone else during oral sex.

No STD is likely to cause the sorts of things you notice on your tonsils. The only possible STD that could cause this is gonorrhea. The problem is that the standard gonorrhea tests in use today are not approved for testing the throat; only a culture test is recommended. But that's a pretty easy test to do, so can't say why your doctor won't do it -- and certainly would expect an STD clinic would do throat cultures for gonorrhea on exposed persons.

OTOH, if your partner had gonorrhea, you probably would have seen evidence of it. Although non-symptomatic urethral (penile) gonorrhea is possible, it is rare; almost all infected men have obvious pus dripping from the penis.

So if I were your shoes, I wouldn't worry about it.
