Hi Lele,
When you said you'll be doing bloodwork, does that mean you
haven't had any done yet? I would be interested to see
what the uric acid levels arekidney function.
If his renal system is the culprit, the antibiotics could be doing more harm than good, especially when you're dealing with edema. I know you are diligent about keeping him hydrated  , but there is no such thing as giving a chameleon too much water! (aside from bacteria and fungus that can develop if not kept clean.) If you don't have one already, I would get an automated misting system and let that thing blast his cage for about 3 or 4 hours daily until I saw some improvement....the humidifiers do ok for overall humidity, but don't give the good "drops" of water for him to flush his eyes and drink drink drink!
just my 2 cents for what it's worth
Keep us posted!
