Default Sick morning tummy

I am not sure if this is at all related to Layla's recovery, although she had this problem before surgery, just not nearly as often- maybe once a month.

For the past three days she has been waking up with a very noise tummy, white gums and wanting nothing to eat, except grass which I am not letting her eat. I usually have to force feed her some apple sauce or yogurt to get her blood sugar back up and eventually she might eat a treat. Before her surgery this only happened if she had an off day eating and went to bed with an empty stomach. The night before last she ate at 9:30 so I know it isn't that.

Should I be getting up around 3 to put food in her stomach? Does anyone know why it is happening so often now after surgery? She gets her Metacam whenever I can finally get her to eat in the mornings.
