i know its long but help me out:

well i went to get my bolivian out the tank today like i always do and she bite me for the first time and started pulling back puffing up and hissing the whole nine yards. when i first got her she went through this but i just sucked it up and grabbed her up back then and she would stop once i had her in my hand. she stopped completely after two weeks of this. that was months ago hadnt had a problem since then till today. any ideas on how to stop this or is this normal for bolivians to go through this occasionally? if it helps i feed her last, this past wednesday and probed her also (to know she was a girl)and checked her out ya know health wise first time for her to go through all that.i had not handled her since i feed her last wednesday,but i always gave her some time after feeding before i handle her again.today was my first day trying to handle her.
any help would be great cause shes to pretty to stay mean.
