UTI, urethra discomfort, or STD?

Okay, so my problem is probably a very similar one posted to these boards.  I recently had a sexual encounter, with a professional in Germany, and she gave me unprotected oral for about 1 or 2 minutes (I am sure that time doesn't really factor in when it comes to getting "burned" or not).  I did not have an orgasm during this brief oral encounter.

Now, the next day I was feeling guilty that i bought sex and started examining my penis quite frequently.  I would look to see if there were any new "things" going on in that region, to include the opening of my penis.  It has been over a month now, and I do not get any kind of discharge, but i seem to have some discomfort in my urethra.  It does not burn or sting when i urinate or ejaculate and as stated before I do not have any kind of noticeable discharge.

So, my question is this:  If I were to have an STD, such as gonorrhea which is one of the few STDs that are commonly spread orally, would my "discomfort" be pain?  Would there be discharge by now? Can you actually convince yourself that you have something wrong with you even when there is nothing wrong?

There's no "white splotch" there okay.    Trust me i've been there - done that; I even went as far as showing a doctor that.   Opened the tip in front of him.   He was like, "looks normal, are you feeling alright?"   Then gave me the "I don't want to see you here anymore."

So I do that to you? ....

Eapoe, I don't want to see you here anymore.

I am just stressed out i suppose.  i have examined the opening of my penis so much now, that I think i am imagining things that aren't there.  I THINK i see a white splotch on the inside of the opening, but the symptoms of syphilis describe a chancre as round and firm... and some of the doctors here state that it is almost impossible to contract syphillis from oral sex....

Maybe a few shots of whiskey will calm my nerves

I'd listen to the doctors on this fourm.   What they say is true, so so true.   They are experts in STDs.

Don't worry about syphilis and chlamydia from oral sex from you exposure.   I say this with confidence.

I am confused after reading some of the other posts about which STDs can be passed via oral sex.

I read some doctors on these boards say that gonorrhea is one of the few that can be passed orally, but other doctors state that syphillis, chlamydia, and gonorrhea can all be passed.

Thanks JessyJames.   I know that it is probably "all in my head".  I have read that if you do have a STD you will not start presenting symptoms the day after sexual contact.  Even knowing that, I have still let those thoughts weigh heavily on my mind.  Making something out of nothing... hopefully!  =)

let me start by saying you probabaly do NOT have gonorrhea.

"would my "discomfort" be pain?"
           Not necessarily.  Sometimes you can be asymptomatic

" Would there be discharge by now? "
          Yes,  but sometimes you can be asymptomatic

"Can u convince urself that u have something wrong, even when there is nothing wrong? "
           Yes, pycosomatic syndrome.
