That looks pretty bad. I'm going to bump this and tag folks.

Have you looked in her mouth to see if there are any lesions or raised yellow patches?

The sneezing and discharge make me think respiratory infection, but let's see what more experienced folks say.

It sounds like you are dealing with a serious respiratory disease, such as MG or another, in addition to fowl pox. Pox lasts around a month or 6 weeks. Look inside the beak for any yellow material which could be wet pox. That type is more serious, and may last longer. Tylan 50 injectable given orally, or Tylosin powder in the water can help treat symptoms of MG. There is no treatment for fowl pox, just supportive care, getting them to drink fluids and eat. Mushy watery chicken feed and egg can be given.
