One interesting note: I was bitten by a tick nymph two weeks ago. I really didn't want to do a round of abx, which I knew would drive my infections deeper, so I gambled. I'd caught the tick almost immediately, put it in alcohol and from that, made an isopathic remedy, which I drank for about a week. There wasn't even a tiny red spot at the site, and I seem to be going along as before. Of course, I don't know if the tick was even infected, but I'm grateful I had the ABPA.
