Q: Could This Be An Std???

The doctor took a swab and gave me a prescription for Metronidazole.It is now 2 days later and I am awaiting the test results.I still have a burning sensation that keeps getting worse and I have a frequent urge to urinate.No bad odor and a slight discharge which is yellow and sometimes white.
Any ideas as to what this could be?Chlamydia?(my boyfriend of 3 years cheated on me 5 months ago)
Has anyone else had these symptoms? HELP!

| Two days ago I went to the doctor because of an intese burning sensation in my vagina.The doctor had given me a presrciption (a one time pill) for a yeast infection with out doing an examination.I had also assumed it was a yeast infection.I went back 3 days later with still the same symptoms for a second opinion from another doctor.The doctor did the examination and found that I had yellow discharge comming from my cervix,and that it may be some sort of std or a bacterial infection. About a month and a half ago my b/f and I were having sex and the condom slipped of his penis and ended up inside of me...I pulled out the condom afterward.

You'll know what it is when the tests get back; diagnosing stds over the internet is exptremely hard.
Until then, cranberry juice may or may not help with the burning. It helps for normal uti's, perhaps it can be soothing in this case as well.

And to that note you shouldn't have sex while you hav a yeast infection or a bacteria infection
It was a month and a half prior that we had sex.
tell your boyfriend to wear the snugger fit condoms instead of wearing the bigger ones
He is by no means small...sometimes condoms slip off when the man's erection goes down.I have spoken to girlfriends who have experienced the same thing.
If he cheats leave him alone too because don't put yourself at risk everytime you have sex...
I have forgiven him for cheating,I am using condoms to reduce my risk.
I am no longer concerned that this is an std,due to the fact that my std tests came back negative.
I'm sticking with IC.Going to go to a urologist.Thanks for your support everyone

do you drink caffiene alot like Soda or Coffee etc???
I do!!!!!! I drink at least 3 large coffees a day...and lots of pop too (hehe we call it pop instead of soda)
When I was diagnosed with IC before it went into remission,I remember that coffee and pop and anything acidic (including cranberries) killed me.
Cuz I know my pee burns n bladder hurts sometimes when I don't consume enough water/juice a day...
Really??? Maybe that could be why (I can't remember that last time I had a glass of just plain water)
Today I'm going to drink lots of water and see if it helps (as soon as this coffee is done!!)
Thnk u so much

lol ...I drink a 2 litre almost in a day 
and alot of coffee....and my pee "glows" **takes a swig of water**
I think a Brita water filter may help too.Grape juice is pretty acidic? no?
I don't have a problem with weight.I'm a small girl.
