However, sources close to the actress suggested the situation may be more serious.
“With every setback, if we are being realistic, everyone has it in the back of their minds that they might not have a tomorrow with her,” one insider told The Daily Mail.

Applegate herself has shared glimpses of how difficult her daily life has become.
Earlier this year, she revealed that she is often confined to bed due to ongoing pain, though she still tries to stay present for her daughter.
“I want to take her; it’s my favorite thing to do… I tell myself, ‘Just get her there safely and get home so you can get back into bed.’ And that’s what I do,” she told People.

Her current hospitalization followed a previous health scare she described on her MesSy podcast, where she said she was “screaming” in “so much pain.”
Doctors later found she had a kidney infection that had spread, requiring immediate treatment with intravenous antibiotics.
She recalled feeling like “my appendix is bursting,” highlighting how intense the pain had become.
These repeated medical issues have added to the challenges she already faces due to her underlying condition.

Applegate was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2021 and has since been vocal about how the disease has changed her life.
“Hi, friends. A few months ago, I was diagnosed with MS. It’s been a strange journey. But I have been so supported by people that I know who also have this condition,” she wrote at the time on X.
“It’s been a tough road. But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some a–hole blocks it,” she added.

The autoimmune condition affects the central nervous system and has led to mobility issues, chronic pain, and extreme fatigue.
She has described how even basic movements can feel overwhelming and how her body no longer functions as it once did.
Before her MS diagnosis, Applegate had already faced serious health challenges.

She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008 and underwent a double mastectomy.
Years later, in 2017, she had her ovaries and fallopian tubes removed to reduce her cancer risk.
Despite everything, she has remained candid about her journey, often speaking openly about both the physical and emotional impact of her condition.
