Ok about 2 months ago I had a sore throat for about 5 days.I had gave my girl oral and also smoked weed off my friend who was sick in the same day.The next morning I woke up I had a sore throat.Im not sure if it came from giving my girl oral or smoking with my sick friend.I went to the doctor and she gave me antibiotics.She said it was most likely a bacteria but it was a slight chance it could be gonorrhea.
I took the antibiotics and got better within 5 days.I sometimes still wonder how I got the sore throat though.Me and my girlfriend always have unprotected sex so I dont know if it was from her.

I havent went down on my girl since this happened cuz Im not too sure where I got the sore throat from.When I went back to my doc she said it was most likely a bacteria infection.
Im not too sure and wanted more opinions on this.Let me know what yall think

Could I have gotten the sore throat from my friend being sick and me smoking off him

Yes, it's possible that the bacteria was contracted after sharing a smoke. Remember that marijuana weakens the immune system, and that a weak immune system causes a ripe environment for infection. Be sure to supplement your diet with a Multi Vitamin or Vitamin C during winter months, when we are generally cold and our immune system is working overtime.
