Some years ago I have used fluconazole to treat a stubborn candida infection that was due to steroid usage. My doctor prescribed it, and it cured that problem.

Amazingly fluconazole also helped my Crohn's Disease a lot back then. I thought this was very interesting.

Has anyone had a similar experience with fluconazole or a similar antifungal drug?

Yes, when I had a fistula years ago and developed a candida infection after being on steroids I found that the diflucan greatly helped the fistula (reduced discharge and discomfort). It never healed it but it would seem to help every time I was on it
