Hi. I received oral sex on 5th March. Feeling stressed about it I went to the gum clinic 14 day post exposure and got tested for chlamydia, gonorrhoea and syphilis. They also done a dawn test that came back clear. I also got tested privately 18 days post exposure.
About 1 week after tests I went back to clinic as feeling a little weird in penis. Another swab test done, came back slightly night white cell count. (Only just over). I was given 7 days doxycyline. Took the meda and they did nothing so tool 1 gram azthrimicin. Again, this done nothing. Waited 2 weeks after taking azthrimicin and went back to the clinic. Spoke to doctor about continuing symptoms. Another swab test taken, this time came back within normal range although he did say that there were a few white blood cells still there but in normal range <5 wbc.
I was still very stressed about this so I waited a further week and got a test done for mycoplasma Genitalium and UU by PCR. Results came back negitive for both. Was wondering about hsv1 but I don't and never have had any blisters on penis. Also, my wife has cold sores and I have never had any issues.
It is now post 6 weeks since symptoms started and still no relief. Worried that I might infect my partner despite negitive for all std.
Any advice would be most welcome.
Thanks

Hi there,
Sorry for barging in like this, but I just stumble upon your post and I've been following your conversation, and I just want to tell you that I have the similar exposure like both of you. And I felt the same anxiety and worries exactly like yours. After read through some of your postings here. It sounds like bothbof h ofyou have taken appropriate actions and all your test results came back negative! Congratulations!
I definitely understand the concern and anxiety though. It's quite upsetting,I too have tested for the main ordinary STIs, to move on now. I've never had an STI before, never had any kind of risk, never thought I would ever walk into a sexual health clinic. The worry gets big at the first month, my exposure has been a little over 6 month ago, and I've been moving on since then. It will get better over time, my last doctor is also a psychiatrist, and he prescribed me some Xanax to calm my nerves for 5 days. It works for me, and it help me a great deal to talk about my exposure. It was a traumatic experience for me. But now I can move on with my life now, without worries of contracting anything or hurting my wife and my loved ones. Apologies for the long post, I just want to share my experience and thanked you for your post, it had helped me too. Wish all the best for all of us :)

I should make it clear, that when I say above that I think the timing for our first prostate issues is too coincidental, I am NOT saying we have STIs, I am saying we have guilt and anxiety
Mot, have you had your prostate examined yet?
I had finger exam, PSA test, and free PSA test. All nothing.
Haven't gone to a urologist yet and not sure I want to. Mostly I want to be normal and quite seeing doctors, especially ones who think I am struggling with guilt-induced anxiety and psychosomatic symptoms.
You and I both had sexual contacts we feel terrible about. Then all the sudden we had our first-ever prostate issues? The timing seems very coincidental, as in hard to believe.

Mot,
Good news. Keep hanging in there, my friend.
I got my urine culture back-nothing.
So here's what I have in my favor right now:
No insertion, so presumably no real risk, especially for fluid-based STDs
Other woman says she has tested negative for the big eight twice-once weeks before we were together and once six weeks after, which was also 15 weeks after her previous unprotected encounter. I totally believe story about first test and want to believe story of second, but I never saw the test results and think she may have just said she did, thinking I am crazy.
My own negative results on big eight stds at eight weeks after incident
Negative test for trich at about nine weeks. Not sure how accurate this test is for men-mine was urine test. But I should have to insert for real risk here anyway.
No pus/white cells found after urethra swab and gram stain
Nothing found in urine culture
Over time multiple urinalysis with dipstick and microscope have found no elevated nitrites, leukocytes, or WBCs
I am now at 12 weeks. Thinking of doing the big eight one last time to be sure.
Like you, I have to imagine I had/have nothing. I imagine it's CPPS, like you. I certainly feel all the tension in the core.
Keep updating and be well.
