Her son, Vladimir, was part of the prisoner swap with Vladimir Putin in August and now lives in the UK.
He said in a post on X: “Thank you so much to everyone for your concern and well-wishes.
“My mother is indeed in a hospital in Berlin, but suspicions of poisoning or heart attack have thankfully not been confirmed.
“The doctors are continuing with the evaluation.”
Berlin cops said in a post on X they are “currently investigating the suspicion of attempted murder.”
Vladimir had previously been poisoned by the Russian tyrant’s goons as Putin has sought to silence dissidents abroad.
The 42-year-old was part of a dramatic Cold War-style prisoner swap that also saw Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich freed.
The Russian opposition politician – who has a UK passport – feared he was “to be shot or something” before the August prisoner swap.
Earlier, he told his family: “I was sure I was going to die in prison.”
