I know it can get worse first, but it's been 83 or above for a few days, plus using ick attack, which has worked wonderfully for me in the past. I just feel like it should at the very least be on a decline by now.
I've never lost a fish to ick, but I've also never had such a hard time with treatment either.
83 is not high enough to kill pick that is why you did not see any improvement. With the tank at the proper tamp now you should see improvements at any time now. Perhaps you could try getting a different med.
