Water change won't do much.
To the others that suggested I catch/medicate. Yes, that would be nice...not much hope in catching him at this point though. If he takes a turn for the worse and looses a step or two, I might be able to get him. Of course, by then it is usually too late.

I know it is tough to get her out but give it a try. You might get lucky.
Use two people with two large nets to corner her or if she hides in the rock cover one exit with the net and force her into it. Night time works better. If you can keep the other tangs away from that end of the tank, try enticing her with a sheet of garlic soaked nori than net her.
It is likely she will develope a nasty bacterial infection and if there in an opportunity it may spread to your other fish and that is the other reason you want her out. The achilles and other tangs will recognize she is failing and kill her.
