Poor Jazzy! Her symptoms could be caused by an injury or being ill. I'm concerned by what you are describing, and I think it's something that needs to be seen by a vet now. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website. Best of luck.
