Dumerils not eating

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought monitor...though to be fair I've kept Dumeril's monitors but never Dumeril's boas so understandable 
Any noticeable behavior changes, other than the fasting? It's odd she doesn't use the UTH, I've only seen that when the pad is too hot and it's obviously not in this case.

Well, she ate a F/T mouse last night for the first time since 10/24.
She shed and did a bad job of it so she'll be getting a bath tonight.
It took her over a week to shed which is odd. I never had a snake take more than 2-3 days.
I treated her the past 7 days with TC because she had a tiny drop of liquid on her right nostril and honestly, I was confused and frustrated that she stopped eating. She's throwing a lot of "Symptons" at me at once: sudden change in temp, shed and possible URI (Or at least a cold) so I dealt with them one at a time. At one point she was sitting there with her mouth open a little bit so i'm thinking "AH, she's sick" but it turns out she got a little piece of repti bark lodged at the gum line from burrowing.
Hopefully we're back on track.
