Probably yes: You can be 100% certain you did not have your gonorrhea when you were treated with ceftriaxone (Rocephin) and bactrum; that treatment for sure would have cured gonorrhea. Therefore, you had to catch it sometime later. If your only partner or exposure since then was the one 7/13, that's when you caught it. That partner needs exam, testing, and treatment for gonorrhea.
