Judy-
I'm sorry to hear of your husband's infidelity. I have little tolerance for marital infidelity, as it violates the trust within a marriage, and places the spouse at risk for health problems like STDs.
The following are STDs one might consider testing for in a patient who has an unfaithful spouse:
Cultures of the cervix:
Chlamydia Gonorrhea
Blood work:
Syphilis Hepatitis B HIV
Inspection of genital organs (when lesions are present):
HPV (genital warts) Herpes Trichomonas
These are relatively easy to test for, and I'm sure your doctor would have no problem testing for these. Good luck with your upcoming surgery.

I apologize, but I am unable to answer personal e-mail due to time constraints.
