Default Hypoglycemia???

Not sure if I am posting in the right place, if not...I apologize in advance. My Millie is 5 1/2 months old. She weighs a little over 4 pounds. Her growth has slowed down in the past month or so. She was gaining a pound every month at first. She has had these episodes on and off since she was almost 2 months old. She gets weak, wobbly, and sometimes can't get up. I give her nutrical, and she perks right up. One time I gave her some kayro syrup too, and she perked right up. I have spoken to my vet, she says as long as she perks up....she is ok. I have looked for a pattern to look for causes of these episodes of illness. The only thing I have found is that they always happen in the morning. I feed her every three to four hours through out the day and leave some food out for her at night. I can not leave food available at all times, because she will eat until she throws up and eat some more. I left her food out for her at first all the time, and in those two weeks... I was constantly refilling her bowls and cleaning up vomit, so my vet said to feed her meals frequently instead. These episodes may happen once every two weeks, once a month, or once every month and a half. I am really confused. Does anyone have any advice for me? Other than these sporadic episodes, she seems happy, playful, and sweet as can be. I want to do what is best for her, so any advice is greatly appreciated.
