STDs and Oral Sex

I recently had several anonymous unprotected oral sex encounters with other men. There were no obvious signs of an STD (no lesions, smell, discharge).  Please advise my best course of action. Just wait and see or should I get tested? If I get tested, what do I get tested for? I am very nervous here.

you would've had symptoms of herpes by now. warts can take awhile to show up but usually hpv infections are symptomless. we don't have commercially available tests for hpv in males.

Thanks for the response. Can I still get warts, herpes, something??? Or do I just wait and see if something develops? I realize the risk on HIV is nil.

even though the risk of a std is overall low from unprotected oral, it's always in your best interest to only have protected oral sex especially with random partners.  

if you don't have any symptoms, no real reason to test. protect yourself better from here on out :)
