There is a slight possibility, but since you have got tested multiple times, the chances have become less. But such disseminated fungal infections are not usual in a normal person.
I'd suggest you to reach out to a dermatologist and get a thorough examination. Without watching the lesions and their morphology it is tough to comment.
