Her temps are very low... you want more like 87 in the hot spot and 82 in the cool spot during the day, and 84 hot spot / 82 cool at night.

Give her stomach a couple of weeks to settle before feeding her again or she'll puke again.
Cheers,
Trevor

Country:
How are you measuring and where are you measuring? I fyou are using stick-on thermometers forget about it. Get yourself either a temp gun or a digital w/remote probe. Then measure the surface areas of both sides. Those will give you your warm and cool temps. Go from there. I would get your temps up to 80-90 or so.
