I do not recomend using the infrared light. I would use those lights just on nocturnal reptiles. I would use a ceramic heat emitter. How old is the UVB light ? I would try to feed your Tegu some small frozen/thawed rodents. The calcium in those bones are much better then the calcium powder. Can you check and see if your calcium powder maybe expired. The twitching sounds to me like he has MBD. How far away is the UVB light from him and what kind do you use ? The sugar bath sometimes doesn't work right away. I would give him a few baths a day.
