It sounds like she is sick, and there could be many things wrong with her such as heart disease, systemic illness, infection, inflammation, injury, or even cancer. I would take her into a vet immediately. 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.
