First : First of all, i will tell you to calm down. Wait for the results first. You may not even have trich, and if you do it is very easy to cure. The responsible thing to do if you test positive, is to inform all your partners and make sure everyone that could possibly be affected to get tested and treated. Lastly, use condoms to avoid this problem in the future. Good luck.
