I agree, the ringworm could be so bad in his case due to immune system issues. I'd definitely do anything I could to boost his immune system. I didn't see vitamin C on your list of things you're feeding him.   I have NO idea if this is safe for sick cats or not (or if it might

Kerry, ringworm will go through a cycle and go away ON IT'S OWN if left alone. NO need to medicate unless you have a multi-cat household were it can cycle along through all the cats and pass back and forth (where, it theory, it could cycle endlessly and never go away). Vets commonly
