Did read about the problem, but looks like he's fading off dark pigments in the last pictures. Gonna be nice
hi again, well after treating with the epsom salt there was some improvement, i treated him with a product called clear from thailand which you have to actually "inject" into the fish's mouth, along with a product for discus called esha something or other he seems to be ok "touch wood" going to do a massive water change tomorrow and im just watching him as i type to see if theres any white poop as you cant feed them when your treating with clear so hopefully i can give him a good all clear come tomorrow 
I personally think that you are over thinking this, and over medicating, which can be just as hard or harder on a fish that just giving it some time & allowing its own natural immunity to take over.
You've gone from a dewormer, to interpet internal bacteria treatment, to epsom salt infused food, to a medication from Thailand, and now back to another discus medication. Considering that your fish was back to eating with no issues, and acting normal (other than being a bit dark) I think that you would be far better off just leaving him alone & allowing him to gain some strength back. I've never been one to recommend a "shotgun" approach when it comes to medicating fish.
