Q: High Risk of Std, Hiv, Etc. Please Help On What to Do.

Doctor,

i was recently in asia and slept with a girl that I met from a bar. I am really worried that I have contracted something. We had kissed and she had performed oral sex on me without protection. We also had intercourse and I had protection. However, I was really paranoid the next day and went to a doctor ini asia. He took my blood sample for a test but told me that it would be about 7 days before the results would come. I flew back to the united states the next day and went to another std doctor (this was about 4 days after sexual intercourse). I did not have any symptoms yet and no tests were done on me from this doctor. I noticed a minor cut on my penis and informed him about it. He told me that it was probably a bacterial infection and gave me levaquin (500 mg, 7 pills... Im currently on my last two) and injected me with bicillin la (2,400,000 units) for prevention of chlymadia, gonorhea and syphillis. Is this the right procedure? He told me to rest assure and that these diseases would not reoccur, that they would be eliminated... Is this true? I am really worried for other viral dieseases as well. I am scheduled to return two months from now and have a herpes test, and then another hiv test in the 3rd month. The doctor in asia emailed me the results and they were negative concerning hiv and vdlr. However I know that these results are probably inaccurate because it was done only after one day of sexual intercourse.
My main question is what I should do now? What other precautions can I take or am I just waiting, if any, as the virus incubates into my body? Should I go to another std clinic and get tested again? Please help.. I am really worried and scared.
