It is difficult to comment without your clinical notes so naturally these are questions you should ask your doctor to answer.

All I can say is that the first test suggests you have no Aspergillus infection, but the results are not 100% accurate and have to be taken in context with other clinical signs, and the second shows that your body has reacted to Aspergillus it has come into contact with - this could be from spores you are breathing in as we all breath such spores in every day! In short they are helpful tests but not conclusive tests.

Your doctor will interpret these results for you far better that I can here.
