I'd like to code your proposed strategy up and measure it by simulations, but I can't quite figure out what it is. Does your strategy start with default-treating someone for fungus, or with waiting? Does it switch to treating an allergy on the first suggestive evidence for allergy, or does it wait for conclusive proof?
