I definitely don't regret taking her in for a full check-up, always better safe than sorry. Your pets are dependent on you for all aspects of their care.

Hope that gives you somewhat on a better idea of RI treatment.
Just in case all is wondering I took the snake to the vet tonight and she has a bacterial infection/pneumonia. He gave her a shot of antibiotics and gave us some antibiotics to give her once a day. Total vet care was 118 bucks* On a side note she was prior un-named but after the fit she threw in the vets office. We have now named her Hissy-Fit or hissy for short. When she is feeling a little better I will post some pictures but the good news is she is not contagious unless they exchange saliva so keep them in separate enclosures and dont let them share water dishes (that's a given on both)
