Shaking Tia

I have a 7 year old shepherd/husky mix.  Over the weekend she came into the bathroom where I was and she was shaking all over.  Then her front legs gave out and she fell to floor.  She couldn't get up for approcximately 5-8 mintues, but once she did she was back to normal.  
She is extremely afraid of noises (thunderstorms, etc).  There was a worker downstairs working on our bathroom and he wsa poudning right before this happened.  Do you think it is just a fear thing, or something more serious.  
Her legs don't appear injured, she is eating, drinking, and going to bathroom normally.  Thank you

I made a vet appointment this week - she seems a little more tired since this has happened, so I just want her checked good.  Hopefully it will be nothing major.

I was thinking possible seizure too and was waiting to see if you would post any follow-up as to if it happened again or any other symptoms.
The shaking could certainly be from the noise, had a Greyhound here that would do that. Puzzles me as to the legs giving out.  any salivation or blank stare?  I know German Shepherds can be prone to Epilepsy and loud noises can bring on a seizure.  Just guessing
