Go that’s so frustrating. I’m sorry you don’t have any answers for him still.

This is what I got from the vet.
In the interpretation of his hematological biometry, an increase in his Erythrocyte and Hematocrit value is observed, as well as a decrease in corpuscular volume. This may be due to slight dehydration, so it will be important to keep him well hydrated. In his chemical values, a considerable increase in glucose can be seen. It may be caused by stress from handling the blood intake. It is common in reptiles to have high glucose levels, but it will be important to keep an eye on it if it maintains these values so constantly.
The other value that we report to be high is phosphorus, The laboratory doctor reported a value of 15.6 mg/dl, although in the study it was reported as high, in the literature values of up to 17.5 mg/dl have been reported, so I think that it is a normal value of phosphorus, and the calcium value, although it is within the parameters, I consider to be lower than normal, all of this may be secondary to the lack of appetite that is already present. So my biggest suspicion is that his loss of appetite could be caused by the parasitosis he presents, so I think we wait for his response to the treatment and then evaluate his evolution if it is positive or not, let's hope he improves with the medication, and start eating again.
