bunny mummy 1

This morning I went into my house bunnies to see Bailey (5 female, neutered) with her head on the side and eyes and head scanning side to side across the room. (As if she's reading a book) She ate a few bits of hay and seemed to have energy to hop out her house but was a bit off balance. (She's pooing currently)
As I've never seen her like this I immediately booked an emergency vet appointment. The vet looked in her ears and eyes and there was no visible infection and prescribed antibiotics and anti inflammatory incase there is inflammation in her head but said there didn't appear to be anything wrong with her physically. Apart from the obvious.
We went home and I put the water dish infront of her and she drank a lot! She hasnt been using the litter tray (which she always does) and I'm thinking she couldn't find the water bowl either.
I gave her antibiotics and critical care to keep her pooping and she actually ate it all without any fight so I'm thinking she was pretty hungry which is weird as she wouldnt eat anything herself (pellets or hay or salad) but snatched grapes out my hand and ran off so fast she actually fell over on her side because She now has even worse balance.
Does anyone have any experience of this? I am not sure whether it's typical head tilt as she lives inside so not really susceptible to parasites and the vet didn't really seem to know either
