Zsa Zsa Gabor was rushed to the hospital on Tuesday after spitting up blood, TMZ.com reports. It's her second visit to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in the last five days.
Gabor's husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, told TMZ the actress could "hardly breathe" and that he's "really worried we may lose her this time."
"She is having difficulty breathing," her rep John Blanchette confirmed to RadarOnline.com.
Word of legendary actress and friend Elizabeth Taylor's death upset Gabor so much last week that she had to be hospitalized with high blood pressure. According to her publicist John Blanchette, Gabor, upon hearing the news on television, replied, "Oh, Jane Russell and Liz Taylor -- I'm next."
The 94-year-old Hungarian actress has been plagued with health problems for some time. She was rushed to the hospital with a blood clot late last year. Then, months later, a lesion from an infected bone forced doctors to amputate part of her right leg. In March, she was rushed to the hospital again when blood flow to her left leg stopped, but she refused a second surgery to amputate it.
Anhalt has previously said the actress is currently on medication but only has a "50-50 chance" of surviving the next year without surgery.
Gabor has been known for decades for pioneering the act of being "famous merely for being famous," as she's often described. Her best-known role was in 1952's 'Moulin Rouge
