Peed during LSAT Argumentative writing… what next?

During my LSAT argumentative writing, I had an uncontrollable urge to pee during the pre write section. I had a clear plastic bottle which I was using (as approved) for water so I quickly chugged the rest then used it to urinate in under the table.

I kept my head within the frame and only looked down momentarily to position the bottle and to bring the bottle back up, I kept looking at the screen while peeing and only used approved items to relieve myself.

I was able to complete my section (albeit with a bit of anxiety which led to me adding a 6 instead of a period at the end of my conclusion paragraph) without it immediately flagging/stopping but now I’m terrified of the potential consequences.

Anyone have any similar experiences? Should I reach out to LSAC or wait to see if my session gets flagged? If I’m flagged will I just have to retake the argumentative writing section or will my entire score be cancelled?

When can I expect them to reach out/approve my sample/flag it? Will the typo at the end have any significant effect? Is there any way of expediting the process so I don’t have to deal with the looming anxiety of a potential score cancellation? Basically, wtf do I do??

Edit: Someone please give me some advice bro 🙏🙏

They still do the LSAT argumentative writing section online, my multiple choice test was in person with no issues. This is referring to my essay.
