Hi Koala

I wouldn't worry too much, I think it just means you have had a reaction to Aspergillus as part of the blood test - mine was a 4, I think it's fairly common for people with allergic asthma to have a reaction to it as it's a type of mould that's quite common I'm afraid. I don't think there's any link to you developing Aspergillosis. Obviously tell your doctor about her as they may think it's relevant.
