Great news supporters! I have heard from MicroGenDx, the company that created this advanced testing to help people identify their bacterial infections. This is what they had to say, 

"We would like to express our sincerest gratitude for your recent efforts in creating a petition to support our NGS testing for diagnosing infections. Your voice and support mean a lot to us, and we are pleased to hear that our testing helped you in finding the bacteria that was causing your infection. As you may know, we are committed to helping people in the fight against infections, and your experience with our NGS testing is a testament to our dedication. We are constantly working to improve our testing to help more people worldwide."

They have a form that you can fill out to share your story with testing as well. Hopefully by working together to get signatures and stories we can convince the American Urological Association that these tests need to be administered as soon as a patient tests negative on a standard urine culture but symptoms persist. 

Thank you again for all your signatures and shares, and remember if you would like to support me directly during this trying time you can go here.
