Oral STD scare

I recently had a laps of judgment and engaged in unprotected oral sex with someone I do not know.  It was very brief and I did not swallow. I also received Oral sex but that was also brief.  I have a sore throat and am scared I might have caught something.  I have scheduled an appointment to get tested in 3 weeks. Is that enough time?   Also he touched his penis and then my vagina. Is there any risk of contracting something that way?

your risk is very low.  Yes you could get herpese or syphilis but thats about the extent of it.  And with either your sypmtoms are not saying much to point in that direction.

as far as him touching himself then you, again low risk.

feel free to test but your really dont have much risk
