Oh i see. Then it's nothing to do with her environment.
Maybe you could try and leave her alone for a while and see if that helps? Not all hamsters want out of cage time and none of ours ever liked a playpen. Freeroaming in the hall with the doors closed, a blanket and toys on the floor is something they enjoy, the ones that like to come out. I only take them out of their cage when they want and ask to come out. The ones that don't, i leave to do their own thing.
Have you done a health check to see if there's anything bothering her physically? You could wear gardening gloves and swaddle her in a towel to check her teeth, nails, underside etc
Maybe someone more experienced than me will come up with ideas because i really don't know why she has changed her behavior towards you like that.
You would have done routine checks like water bottle and wheel working ok, washed your hands so they don't smell of food etc
Sorry, i can't be more helpful.
