Hi,

First let me say Dr. Handfield has help me and this by no means should reflect on him, I am simply asking for a fresh look. There was a little confusion on my wording but in the end, it was straightened out. I am going to paste and then edit it.

Had oral me giving oral with ejaculation on 10/28. There was a 2 second French kiss also, No other sex to date. On 11/5 had blood drawn for a routine physical all number within limits.

Two days later 11/13 had a dry throat and a very miner sore throat but only with a few swallows then gone.  Two days later 11/14 17  [17days from exposure]  I developed white spots in my throat, and it seemed like two little sack of white something hanging in my uvula no pain and when I put a cue tip on one of them it disappeared. I went to urgent care and explained my events and my worry that I had might have oral Gonorrhea. The Doc. Without hesitation ordered me a single dose of Azithromycin [ZITHROMAX] and ceftriaxone [ROCEPHIN]. Two-days after the shots the uvula was cleared [don’t know of it fell off or not] and a few days later  [11/19] the red patches were gone and on 11/22 my throat feels fine. I have read and as Dr Handfield stated the timeline seems a little late 18 days from exposure to get symptoms and the quick Antibiotic action seems to point away from Herpes but my mind keeps thinking “what else could that have been ? Is there any hope for me?

Here is my timeline:

 1-Event was on 10/28   

2- The first indication of throat discomfort was on 11/13 but did not bother me so mild felt dry.

3- Took STI tests on 11/15 with no throat problems.

4- On 11/17 first noticed the white spots on uvula went to Urgent care Dr. gave me the pills and a shot

5- On 11/19 Uvula cleared up

6- By 11/22 all is back to normal.

7- today 11/23 got all the STI results back all NEG. Syphilis, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia. And as I said HIV rapid test week before was NEG.

I am freeking out for I have small Grandkids and need to find anyway to protect them
