Amy Winehouse Taken to E.R. After Rx Reaction 2af02s8

Amy Winehouse's health is, once again, in doctors' hands.

The troubled chanteuse was rushed to a London hospital Monday night
after suffering an adverse reaction to medication, E! News has
confirmed.

"Please be advised that Amy Winehouse suffered a reaction to medication
at home this evening and was taken to the hospital," the singer's rep,
Tracey Miller, said. "Doctors have advised that she will be kept under
observation overnight and is likely to be released tomorrow."

Winehouse was reportedly admitted to University College Hospital in Bloomsbury.

Eyewitnesses outside the 24-year-old songbird's townhouse saw her being
escorted from the premises in a wheelchair, according to
SplashNewsOnline, which first reported the latest twist in Winehouse's
physical-stature saga.

The aforementioned emergency comes a week after Winehouse learned that
beloved hubby Blake Fielder-Civil would be spending at least 18 more
months behind bars for witness-tampering and barely a month after she
spent a week undergoing various tests following a fainting spell.

Winehouse's rep, clarifying her father's initial remarks to the press
about his little girl having emphysema, said that the Grammy winner was
showing early stage symptoms of the chronic respiratory disease.

"Obviously, if she doesn't quit smoking, it's going to get worse, like
everyone else...with patience, her lungs will recover completely,"
Mitch Winehouse told BBC Radio 1.

"With no more inhalation of smoke of any kind, she's going to be absolutely fine."

While photographic evidence shows that she hasn't exactly been taking
it easy, Winehouse was apparently healthy enough to perform at Nelson
Mandela's 90th-birthday extravaganza and England's Glastonbury festival
last month.
