 If you have never had a coldsore before and you did not use a condom while giving oral, then yes, it is highly possible that the person you gave oral to may have passed herpes on to you.

 If you have never had a cold sore before, most likely, you have been exposed and now exhibit signs of the herpes virus. You need to get valtrex or something similar to lessen the severity. There are also over the counter cold sore medicines such as Herpicin sp? and such. Go to your doctor. Also, in the future, remember, many STD's are not necessarily noticible (such as herpes) but can still be spread. Once you have it, you can't get rid of it and you can always expose someone to it. DON'T kiss anyone while you have a sore!
This is from the site:

Herpes simplex viruses -- more commonly known as herpes -- are categorized into two types: herpes type 1 (HSV-1, or oral herpes) and herpes type 2 (HSV-2, or genital herpes). Most commonly, herpes type 1 causes sores around the mouth and lips (sometimes called fever blisters or cold sores). HSV-1 can cause genital herpes, but most cases of genital herpes are caused by herpes type 2. In HSV-2, the infected person may have sores around the genitals or rectum. Although HSV-2 sores may occur in other locations, these sores usually are found below the waist.
Herpes simplex type 1, which is transmitted through oral secretions or sores on the skin, can be spread through kissing or sharing objects such as toothbrushes or eating utensils. In general, a person can only get herpes type 2 infection during sexual contact with someone who has a genital HSV-2 infection. It is important to know that both HSV-1 and HSV-2 can be spread even if sores are not present.

 PLEASE get this checked up with a doctor! I am not one and I have never given oral but I do know that basic biology states that coldsores arise from a similar virus to the STD herpes. They're in the same family of viruses except coldsores are harmless, and obviously the STD is not.
You CAN transmit STDs through oral sex but you cannot get pregnant.
As embarassed as you may be, PLEASE inform a trusted adult (perhaps your mother or father) and let him or her take you to the doctor. Even if nothing's wrong, it's good to know in the event something could be wrong and gets out of hand.
I hope you'll take my advice because if you're scared, there's no harm in finding out the truth. Better to do it now than let it get worse.
Best of luck to you.
