New shoes, horse trips all the time!

Please help…I had shoes put on my horse because she had an old injury that reopened and was said to be white line. For almost a year, the crack has neither gotten better or particularily worse, so I chose to put shoes on her. Since (and as soon as) she has had her shoes put on, she stumbles all the time, and has even tripped (to the point of going down on her knees) on about 4 occassions in the 3 weeks she has had the shoes.
I have included a link to some pictures, I’m hoping someone has some insight as to what’s happening here…she is not a clumsy or trippy horse, and it’s very concerning for me.
