Post scabies or reinfestation? (NSFW images included)

Apologies there is quite a few pics here. Ive been dealing with this bout of scabies for months, 10 to be precise though I was only actually diagnosed 3 months ago. Ive been treating constantly since then (under gp instruction) with ivermectin and permethrin but they just.. wont seem to go. This is my body 1 week after my last treatment, to anyone thats seen a lot of scabies think that theres STILL an active infestation going on here? Or is this just how post scabies can appear?

Is this post scabies or did my treatment fail?

Ive recently finished my 4th (yes.. 4th) course of Ivermectin, and ive FINALLY seen some progress in my rash going down. Its been 15 days since my last dose of treatment, and while it seems to be going down, im noticing new red itchy bumps (in particular on my hands and bum (image not included for bum)) and what seem like some lines coming off of some of the bumps, not the obvious scratch marks but more faded red/silver lines.

Im concerned honestly that im going to need ANOTHER course of treatment for the scabies that ive had for over a year (constant misdiagnosis until 2 months ago)

I actually have Ivermectin on repeat prescription until it clears so I can easily get ahold of more but.. I'd really prefer to not have to treat AGAIN haha, ive been living out of black bags for 2 months now.. i cant deal with more

Hello so ive just gotten into Modern Ind- and am just getting to the step of making my first coke oven, at many a times during this ive placed a new bronze boiler down, supplied it with water using a Sink, given it heat and it just.. doesnt start making steam. most the times ive fixed it its literally just been "place, delete, place, delete, place, etc etc" until it works. is there any known reason for this? i mimiced my current functioning set up and it just isnt working this time
