Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Its been an year and you have no symptoms of any STD. So there is no point getting tests done, however you may get your ELISA for HIV, hep b( HBsAg) and hepatitis C serology done as these at times do not manifest immediately. Having said this, if the girl was only in relationship with you, she might be clean having no STD.
not gaining weight does not signify any disease. Had you been losing weight constantly without cause, it would have been alarming.
Hope that helped
