How Long Should I wait for Gonorrhea Treatment?

How Long Should I wait for Gonorrhea Treatment?i think that I may have gonorrhea. How long should I wait for treatment? Should I go to an Emergency Room? I've read that it could cause infertility. I would hate it if i were infertile. How long does that take? it's the weekend... and I think I contracted it last Monday. Should I wait till Monday morning or will that risk dire consequences? Prompt answers from learned people with links would be helpful.
I am 26 years old. A girl went down on me (oral sex) last week. We did not have sex, Since then, there has been a 'tingle' of sorts at the end of my penis. No discharge whatsoever, some light pain in my abdomen like a mild version of getting hit in the balls. Some anal itching and fresh blood in stool once. So i'm pretty sure that is what i have. I just want to know if it could cause infertility within a weeks time.

Well I am not learned people on the subject but I would be at the doctor office Monday morning when they open if I even thought anything was wrong with the "guys".

Don't go to the ER, but on Monday I'd seek out your doctor's office, urgent care clinic, student health center, or whatever, to get treated.

You don't say if you're having symptoms or why you think you were infected, but in anycase, it's not something you need to go to an ER to get treated, but don't delay treating it either.

Plenty of great info, fact sheets, etc, at the website below.

Gonorrhea is treated with antibiotics and the antibiotics will cure the disease and the symptoms will go away. The antibiotics are inexpensive and usually there is no need to return for a reexamination or retreatment. Once you treat it and the symptoms go away, its gone. Those persons who should be tested for Gonorrhea include persons who are sexually active and who are not using protection or those persons who come in with symptoms; with women, with a vaginal discharge and with men, with penile discharges. The test for Gonorrhea is a urine-based test where the patient comes in, urinates in a cup and the specimen is sent into a laboratory for testing.
