Hello.

Candida spp. and E. coli infections are not STD, but can be resault of STD (HIV for example). Antibiotics are obligatory if you have signs and simptoms (fever), but on the other hand, if you have no problems, that might be just colonisation or bad test.
If you have any doubts concerning STDs, you should visit specialist and perform HIV test or do it by home OraQuick set. Have in mind, all you mentioned are treatable illneses.

Don't worry too much, but take care on your health.
