Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

Shes about 7 and a half months old now
In that case you should be very gradually reducing her pellets to about an eggcupful a day (when they are younger they need more). You must do this slowly, though. Hay is the most important part of her diet - should be about 80% of her food - in order to keep her teeth and tum in good order. If she fills up on pellets she won't eat the hay she needs.
I think that if you make these gradual changes to her diet you should see an improvement.
It is good that you are going to the vet anyway - but if you are at all worried I would make an earlier appointment.
