I wouldn't bother telling her unless for some weird reason you are actually positive, in which case it's her right to know. You won't for 100% sure get HIV just because you sleep with someone who has HIV without protection or share blood with someone who has HIV. Also, some people are just resistant to it. That's not exactly what they tell you in health class. Obviously you should still be safe though. Just saying that if you've already came back negative then I don't think there's too much to worry about. [ loveydovey224's advice column | Ask loveydovey224 A Question ]

It is good to know that you and your partner is going to get screening or tested for HIV. From what i know about HIV if you have come back clean after 11 months of exposure, you have nothing to worry about. Not trying to scare you but what type of HIV did you get screened for ? Because there are two types HIV-1 & HIV-2. It is entirely up to you if you want to disclose that information to your partner but i dont think it would make a difference since from what you wrote and your test results - you are in the clear.
