Is there anyway I could get anything if someone passed me a drink that was previously used for sucking water out for an IV?

Was it a new needle? If not then there is a possibility.

... a pretty remote one.
blood-borne diseases generally are not transmitted except by body fluid-to-body fluid exposure, i.e. sharing needles, unprotected sex ... taking this water by mouth which would probably have a miniscule amount of pathogens, if any at all, is a pretty low risk, although gross.
if you're involved with using IV drugs or other risky behaviors which I imagine you might be were you in this situation to begin with, it's definitely worth your time to get tested, if only for your peace of mind.
but catching anything this way is probably a distant possibility.

I did IV with water that had new needles stuck it it and used afterwards but they wiped them off. I'm not fooooor sure, but I can tell when someone has an std and I think someone had something.

no, you would have to chug tens of gallons of that water to get anything. you're ok
