I just got my results back and I'm DNA and PCR positive for FL1953. Nothing was detected in the blood, just the DNA and PCR. My doctor is not familiar with this bug so he's going to do some research and get back to me. In the meantime he said to start Azithromycin.

Where do you get tested for this or how do you get the kit? Does a dr have to order- pardon my ignorance. Thanks -
Sorry to hear you are positive... at least you know now .... and can treat!

The kit comes from Fry Labs in Arizona. I don't remember if I ordered it and asked that it be sent to my doctor's office or if my docotr's office called and requested the kit. Once the doctor has the kit they can draw your blood and then you can take it to FedEx. I think it has to be drawn on a Monday, Tues. or Wed. so the lab gets it by Friday.
Thanks, yes now I know at least one of the things that I have. Good luck!
