EMERGENCY SURGERYOver the weekend I felt extraordinarily unwell. At first, I thought it was a case of food poisoning so I just took it easy.I woke yesterday morning to continued pains in my stomach and decided to see a GP.I was told I needed further scans and blood tests and was taken immediately to the hospital.Surgeons determined I needed an emergency operation to remove my appendix.Compared to the pain I was in before the surgery, today's pain is a lot less and I plan on being back on my feet tomorrow.#Auspol #OneNation #PaulineHanson #Surgery #FeelingBetter #ImOKPicture: Pauline Hanson/Facebook
