Julian Assange could be considering leaving the Ecuadorian embassy and handing himself in to police, Sky News understands.
After spending two years holed up inside the central London building, the Australian is holding a news conference this morning - when he is expected to spell out his next move.
Widespread reports suggest the WikiLeaks website founder needs hospital treatment for heart and lungs problems.
But, under continuing surveillance since he requested political asylum from Ecuador in June 2012 and with police stationed outside the embassy around the clock, he will be arrested if he leaves.
Sky News Crime Correspondent Martin Brunt said: "Mr Assange gave a newspaper interview yesterday in which he sounded very dispirited.
"A lot of the fighting spirit seems to have gone out of him. It's also been made clear from those around him that he's quite ill.
"He's said to have a heart condition, a chronic lung complaint, bad eyesight, high blood-pressure, all as a result of ... two years in the Ecuadorian embassy."
The 43-year-old has been investigated by US authorities since WikiLeaks published leaked military and diplomatic documents in 2010.
He was granted asylum in 2012 and is facing extradition to Sweden over alleged sexual offences, which he denies.
