Default How to feed hamster that doesn’t want to eat

I’m been syringe feeding my hamster Cow and it’s been extremely difficult. I get so nervous about the stress of holding her like that when she’s sick, and she’s been eating some things on her own but it’s not enough because she’s losing weight pretty fast. (She has wet tail)

does anyone have any tips on how to get them more interested in eating larger amounts? I tried so many foods but she’s interested in very few of them

I feel so bad because she is eating some by herself and she gets so upset when I have to force it

Her hydration is ok but I’m so worried about the effects of the stress on her from repeatedly waking her up and making her eat forcefully, and I’m scared I won’t be able to make her eat enough

They also just gave her a subcutaneous fluid shot and she’s been acting very upset and maybe in pain at home. Idk if that’s normal after the shot because they did the rest at the vet without me there to see her response.
