Brief Answer:
Proper follow up is very essential.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back.
The test does not indicate the stage of the disease. Clinical evaluation is required to assess the stage of the disease. You need to talk to your doctor for the same. About the course of benzathin penicillin, I do not think that you should self medicate. You should remain under the supervision of your doctor so that he can monitor the progress and make suitable changes in the treatment regimen if felt necessary.
Following is the treatment guideline:

Brief Answer:
Wait for the reports
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back.
The lymph node enlargement as well as I coated tongue could be warning signs but let us not speculate. Let us wait for the reports of the p24. Depending on the results appropriate steps may be taken and post exposure prophylaxis can be administered if felt necessary.
