What kind of bedding is it?
All rats carry Mycoplasmosis, and it can flare up when they're stressed. Take her to the vet and get her an antibiotic, it shouldn't cost much. They can still be happy and active, eating and drinking... they just can't breathe as well. If it's a strong, (otherwise) healthy rat, it's not much different for them than having a cold. Untreated, though, it can get worse.
Some rats are just more prone to flare-ups... you could end up treating her for it for the rest of her life. It's one of the big downsides to owning rats. They're worth it, though.
