That negative test result is nearly 100% conclusive. And chlamydia rarely lasts as long as two years; the immune system usually eliminates infection within that time. Oral chlamydia is rare; and when present, typically lasts only a couple of weeks. It does not cause sore throat or any other oral symptoms.
