Andrew, if it is a wild caught the trip to the vet probably really stressed it out. You are probably right that something is wrong. Do yourself a favor and try to find a vet who is familiar with tortoises. If you are in the US you can start here http://www.arav.org/ you can also ask your local turtle and tortoise society for recomendations. It is not a good idea to try and fix this yourself you are fighting a very steep up hill battle particularly if this is a wild caught animal. Good luck.
