Try giving her some pedialyte and some probiotic...see if that helps. sometimes when they just came out of brumation they loose a lot of water through respiaration adn probably electrolyte, too, and if it got too cool, it may have killed off the gutflora in her gut. You can use pedialyte for babies and probiotic for humans or reptiles (I think either will work). I'm just guessing here so don't believe everything I tell you. I'm not that much of an expert, so I think youi need to take him to a good second vet that is experienced with herps for a second opinion.
