Whatever you see or don't see, she is showing you she feels unwell, so your duty to her is to take her for a medical check.

Hi David,
Your girl is probably feeling unwell. None of us here can diagnose what may be wrong. She really needs to see a vet. There are so many things this could be, and she needs a professional to take a look at her.

Does she have any other symptoms? Does she have a bit of a swollen belly? Is she peeing/pooping just right and normally? Is she eating and sleeping well? Is she drinking normally? What colour are her gums? Are they pink and healthy, or pale?
By the way -if she has pale gums, she needs to see the vet VERY URGENTLY.
If her gums are black, and you can't tell, take a look at the skin just inside her eyelid. Pull down her bottom eyelid slightly and take a look there.
