Do i need to go get tested for hsv antibodies (blood test) if i have no lesions on penis after oral sex with a girl that had lip cold sore heal a week ago? no cold sore was visible during oral sex, it healed a week prior to that. not sure what to do?

If you have no symptoms, you don't need to do anything. A single exposure like this has under one chance in thousands of catching herpes; and without symptoms, testing for HSV antibodies is not a useful test. It takes up to 3 months for HSV antibodies to turn positive.
