Are fungal infections responsible for many 'undiagnosed' illnesses?

No, systemic candidiasis is a scam. Labs and practitioners charge money to do tests on various samples and they invariably report positive results. They then sell expensive treatments. There is no evidence for any of it.
My suggestion is that if you are tempted by some of these ads that you first send a test sample of some kind. See if they report it as negative.

Fluconazole is similar to an antibiotic but it treats fungal infections rather than pathogens. It can be used as an intravenous drug to treat systemic fungal infections, or as a cream for example to treat topical localised fungal infections. A common example of a fungal infection is thrush (candidiasis) which can effect mucous membranes in areas such as the mouth or vagina. Athletes foot (tinea pedis) is another example of a fungal infection. Some fungal infections can be very serious causing septicaemia, but mostly they are localised and uncomfortable, but easily treated.
