My pet seems sick, I need opinions
Okay. So I've had a hamster for roughly 3 - 4 years now. I've taken decent care of it, but I'll be the first to admit I could have done better. Today when I went downstairs to check on her she was laying completely still in front of her food bowl. At first I thought she was dead, but after I took her out and held her for a while I could feel breathing. I somehow managed to "nurse" it back to health, or whatever, and after shakily walking about for a bit she appears to be cleaning herself. She seems really confused though, and her equilibrium is kind of wonky.
What should I do? I asked my close friends who had Hamsters and she said I should probably just let this run its course because she's old, and if she dies then she dies, but I feel like maybe I should go to a Vets or at least do something.
I don't know what to do. I'm a terrible pet owner, perhaps it would be best to let it go.
Edit;
She seems fine for now, btw, that's why I feel like I have time to ask for opinions.

Since yours is in that area now, it is very likely this is the beginning of the old age symptoms. Not to mention, taking a hamster to the vet will likely be an expensive endeavor. All the vet is going to do is tell you their isn't anything they can do anyhow and charge you $100.00 to do so.
