Zsa Zsa Gabor is back in the hospital.
The "Moulin Rouge" actress and Hollywood socialite -- who is turning 94 this Sunday -- was disoriented and vomiting blood in her L.A. home Tuesday morning, her spokesman confirmed.
"Following breakfast this morning… she started coughing up blood and mucus," spokesman John Blanchette told AFP. "[The hospital] sent an ambulance to the house immediately. They've pumped the mucus out of her lungs… and they had to treat some pus pockets in her leg, where there is an infection."
Gabor's husband, Frederic Prinz Von Anhalt, later told The Associated Press doctors told him they hoped to stabilize her leg "in a few hours."
His wife was "sort of conscious" as she was rushed to the hospital, he said.
"She doesn't know what is going on. She has no memories. It could come back but the doctor doesn't know yet," van Anhalt added.
Gabor's leg was amputated on Jan. 14 at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center because of an infection. Last July, the actress, 93, broke her hip and had surgery; she had also been in the hospital due to blood clots.
Additionally, she was partly paralyzed in a car wreck in 2002 and in 2005 she suffered a stroke.
Gabor shot to fame as a sex symbol in the 1950s and has famously been married nine times.

Michael Lohan Rushed to Hospital For Chest Pains
Michael Lohan is being rushed to the hospital after experiencing chest pains ... TMZ has learned.
We're told Michael was at a doctor's office in Newport Beach, CA for a consultation about getting his nose fixed -- a nose which has been broken several times over the years.

Michael is en route to Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach.
UPDATE: We're told Michael needs emergency surgery on a blocked artery and will stay at the hospital overnight.

Charlie Sheen was rushed to the hospital this morning, TMZ has learned ... and a source at the hospital tells us, "It's serious."
We're told Charlie was taken out of his home on a stretcher and loaded into an ambulance at 7 AM.

We're told Charlie's father, Martin Sheen, and his mom, Janet Templeton, are at the hospital. Charlie's ex-wife, Denise Richards, is also there.

UPDATE: Charlie's medical emergency will not immediately affect production ... "Two and a Half Men" is on hiatus this week.

Fired Nurse: Tiger Woods Is Key in Hospital Cover-Up
The nurse fired for allegedly leaking Tiger Woods' medical records last year claims Tiger is partly to blame for his newfound unemployment -- spurring a massive hospital cover-up that cost him his job.
Nurse David Rothenberg -- who claims he's innocent -- filed new docs last Friday in his ongoing legal battle against the hospital that fired him ... insisting pressure from Tiger's side "may in fact be the motivation that led [the hospital] to severely punish" him.
According to the docs, Tiger's fame is "central to Mr. Rothenberg's claims that [the hospital] is engaged in a continuing cover-up" -- because if Tiger weren't a big name ... the hospital wouldn't have made such a stink about the records being leaked in the first place.
David claims the hospital is using him as a scapegoat to cover up the true reason for the leak -- the "lack of basic computer security for [the hospital's] patient health care system and the behavior of numerous doctors ... who inappropriately accessed [Tiger's] health care information."
As we previously reported, David is suing for defamation ... demanding $400,000 in damages.
