I pulled a tick off my son today!

Hi,
I feel like someone is playing a joke on me. I am currently being treated for lymes myself. Just today...my son who is 8 came home and tells me about this 'scab' on his back. I take a look and had to get really really close. I needed a flashlight. It was a tick. I pulled it out and have it in a bag. I took him to the pediatrician and because of what I'm going through he put him on 2 weeks of amoxicillin. I am going to go get the tick tested, but it kind of fell apart. Is that enough?? What else should I be doing? Feeling worried

I agree with Girlie

Also Buhner recommends using a mix of andrographis and bentonite clay on the site where the tick was. This will pull the tick out. Bentonite clay can be found at some beauty supplies as it is also a mask type clay for women. The andrographis is a herb... some naturopaths or herbalists may have access to it. Mix the andrographis with the clay & water, apply to the bite area, cover with dressing and leave on for 2 days. Also as girlie said, astragalus is recommended as a supplement as well

Hope this helps!
