Don't feed her anything and make sure you take her to a very qualified herp vet (my experience is that the emergency vet clinics don't know crap-- they monkeyed around sticking mine, couldn't even figure out how to draw blood properly because they had never done it before) They were of no help whatsoever and I ended up treating the wound better myself. Your problem sounds very serious however, and I cannot stress enough that you take her in as soon as possible. If you have a regular herp vet, see if they take emergencies. Unfortunately igs don't fare well by the time they show severe signs of illness. I wish you the best of luck. Keep her warm and let her sleep.
