Colleen,
I second what Terry has advised you.
Keep him warm. Keep him indoors at night and I would keep him covered somehow, with a little towel or something to keep drafts on him.
You want to keep him very warm as Terry advised but not so hot that he dehydrates.
Vet treatment is needed asap.
Is your vet experienced in treating tortoises?
