Strange behaviour

My aro has been behaving very strangely last 2 weeks.
1. It rest at the bottom of the tank now, swims around only once in a while.
2. It wriggles a lot, to the extent of doing summersaults and hits the substrate at the bottom of the tank. (Like chinchilla doing sand bath) Bcos of this, there are some dropped scales on her back.
3. It has stopped eating for the last 2 weeks.
4. A few dropped scales (dropped some time ago) don't seem to be recovering or grow back.

But I noticed that hers eyes are very lively and alert though.

At first I thought it was nothing, but now I am getting worried. Hope to do something before its too late. I do not have a hospital tank. Anyone know of anywhere that provide fish hospitalistion service, and what's the charges like. Pls advice. Thank you very much.
