Hey, I read your post but I don't really know what to say, I get all of my advice from the breeder I bought the chameleon from, I'll run this problem past him if I can see him in time to help you! I hope your little guy gets better, I really do.
For everyone else, here's a couple more photos of my pretty little guy, he's starting to get used to my camera.

Are you certain? I read somewhere that the males have orange on their chins instead of white, and he deffinately has orange lines on his chin.. when he's angry or eating.

You know what... I'm not positive!
As you know, my knowledge lies with the bitaeniatus group and not so much with the dilepis as a whole. What you are saying abewt the colour of gular grooves could very well be correct for one of the dilepis sub-species. My guess of female is solely based on the hemipenal bulge or lack thereof on your specimen. Males of the dilepis dilepis are easily sexed by that.Here are a few pics of my baby/juvie female dilepis dilepis for comparison. She is not much older than yours.
For the life of me, I can not find a pic of the male clutchmate to my female so I'll have Brandy post a few of her male for comparison sake.
If you have not read it already, here is an excellent article of the dilepis complex that might help you figure out what you've got! http://www.chameleonnews.com/dilepis.html
I like how the dilepis walk with their tails above their heads. I have not noticed this behaviour in other chameleon species. Does yours do that?
Cheers!
