hoooo boy. No, I mean tested for every STD that they can test you for. When I've done it, I just asked them to run all the tests they had... it's a good habit to get in to. Keep in mind that not all STD's are testable... many don't even manifest themselves, even if you are infected... so you can still transmit them without knowing it. (HPV is a good example, and it can be transmitted even when using condoms.) I suggest you educate yourself on all sexually-related matters as quickly as possible, for your own good as well as your partner's. Also, to talk over everything with her as openly as possible.
