I am going to look at the info you provided.
I also thought about trying Clicker Training with her
Clicker is a great idea but I want you with someone that can hold your hand going through helping her. Your going to have set backs and someone in your space or close to you will be a great support.
I can get you some good starter books but it going to take time to get up on anxiety and working clicker to help it.
My little one is an fear mess and we have good and bad days and my behaviour person is a god send.

Drugs.. do not rule them out as they can us natural stuff and it even more important if she has health issuses to see a vet/behaviour person rather then just a trainer.

Hang in and call the big guys and Pm me I can get you started on some good books for clicker... oh I think though if your going to go clicker to make sure you start with a quiet one. Some make a loud sound and you can soften it with tape.

I also look into Telligton touch for helping calm and an anxiety wrap.
