I found some information that they test you on HIV, Syphillis and Gonorrea here in Colombia 

I got tested on those things with my husband in Mexico, last August since it was a requirement for us to get married there

 

 

They do not test HIV in any consulate.  They offer a test if you want one but the new instructions clearly state to the civil surgeon that the test isn't mandatory and the bendficiary doesn't have to take it.

 

They do test for syph, gonorrhea, and as I recall TB then they do a stool exam (bet that's a fun job, the stool examiner)  Dunno what else.  A urine test for something.

Not that I'm doing the medical, my fiancee is, but after all the waiting and paperwork, and jumping thru hoops I would be more than happy to drop a deuce anywhere they want. LOL
