Without any further information or clinical signs there are an infinite number of problems that could be going on. If she is weak and swaying then this could be a life threatening emergency and she should be seen immediately. If there is any chance that she has been exposed to any toxins, prescription medications, or recreational drugs please make sure to tell the veterinarian what she may have had access to. After a physical examination the veterinarian may have more of an idea about the potential problem. They may recommend lab work or an x-Ray to give them more information. Best of luck and I hope she improves quickly.
