Negative test results at 5 months after exposure rule out both HIV and Hep C. You do not need to test more. HIV test window periods https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/hiv-testing/test-types.html

There are NO medical conditions or medications that have any effect on the reliability or timing of HIV blood tests, except anti-HIV drugs. Your negative test results prove you do not have HIV.
