Australian singer Peter Andre has opened up about his painful mystery illness last month (Nov10), revealing he woke "in agony" before he was admitted to hospital.
The Mysterious Girl hitmaker was taken ill on 26 November (10) and underwent an emergency procedure at Musgrove Park Hospital in Somerset, England to treat "excruciating" stomach pains.
He was forced to scrap two shows on his current trek across Britain and ordered to rest by doctors.
And now Andre has spoken out about his health crisis, revealing he was suffering from poisoning in his kidneys.
He tells Britain's Now magazine, "When I woke up in the small hours of the morning, I was in agony. I had poisoning in my kidneys and had to be operated on within two hours of being taken to hospital. I was totally out of it."
Andre has since resumed his tour, taking the stage in Minehead, England on Sunday (05Dec10) - but he was ordered to not dance as a result of his operation: "My doctor told me I wasn't allowed to dance. I've never done a gig where I just stood there before, but the audience were amazing."
