After 6 months from needle stick from unkown status of patient got (non reactive) hiv combo and anti-hcv is my testing conclusive i am concerned about delayed hiv seroconversion if hiv and hcv occurred simultaneously? documented by cdc?

With the standard HIV tests now in use, there is no such thing as such long delayed positive HIV blood test result, with or without HCV infection. You can be 100% confident in your negative test results for both viruses.
