giardia and trichomonas can cause feather loss, trichomonas is a bit tricky to get rid of and may require a longer dose of rondiazole 12%. internal parasites (not mites) can also get into the organs including the brain and cause some neurological issues.

When you say you did air sac mite treatment and then iverlux, did you use Scatt for the air sac mite treatment? In any case, in my opinion that is too much medication. The iverlux and whatever you used for air sac mites would be like doubling down on it. If you meant to say you used iverlux for air sac mites and not something else, then never mind.

you mention rondiazole 12% is that the same as ronivet 12?
