Can someone give me info about FL-1953? I do not know anything about it. I just found out yesterday that I tested positive for it.
I am really sad.
Does this go away?
Any info at all would be helpful.

There is hope. The doctor whose name belongs to the organism is actively working toward a cure. I'm sorry you are ill. The best thing to do now is get your level of vitamin D up, start eliminating most fats, drink lots of water.

I had vit d checked a few weeks ago. Number was 60, so that is good.
I do good on water.
I eat meat, so I will look at taking that out.
Thank you for telling me there is hope. I feel like there is not.

Actually since I started treating protomyxzoa about 3 months ago, I have gotten so much better, I feel close to well. The low fat vegan diet is important because it multiplies 100 times faster on fat. You should try to keep your fat intake to 15 grams a day.
Eat a lot of whole foods; grains, legumes, vegetables and fruit. Brown rice, black rice and quinoa will not aggravate yeast because they do not raise the blood sugar quickly. Lentils and most beans are low in fat (garbanzo aren't). Yams are very good.
Chia seeds are a good addition to your diet because they have a lot of omega 3 fatty acids. They swell up when you soak them in water so you can use them to thicken things. I delute salad dressing with water and add chia to thicken it.
After awhile you will not want the oil you are used to cooking with. My energy has increased a lot since starting the diet. I am losing excess body fat. I can think much better. I am more motivated.
I also have been taking ivermection in the human form - stromectol. All of my pain is gone.
Try not to cheat too much on the diet. People tell themselves they need meat for protein but you really don't. You will get plenty of protein from vegan foods. Other people say good fats are necessary for you brain and nerves. 15 grams of good fats is plenty. Or they simply can't do the diet because of candida. Not true either. My yeast is gone.
I have never seen such improvement so it is worth the try.

Please do a search in here for all the info that has been posted and talked about. Do search for FL1953.

I wouldn't say my daughter's pain is gone. So, don't be surprised if you get worse when you start treatment. Everyone is different. Some can start at full dose, my daughter had to start a microdoses. After a year, she is still not up to the full dose her doctor wants her to be on. But, he isn't in any hurry, as herxing is just as hard on the body.
I will say, that my daughter ran out of Ivermectin, and two days later, she had absolutely no pain. It did come, as usual, around sundown. But, the entire day of no fatigue or pain was a hopeful sign.
My daughter thrives on a vegan diet. She didn't realize how sick some foods were making her until she changed her diet.
