Katya Zamolodchikova<\/a> is sharing an update for worried fans.<\/p>\n

A week after sparking concern among fans after posting a hospital photo<\/a>, as well as cancelling a Netflix Is a Joke show<\/a> later in the week alongside Trixie Mattel<\/a> to focus on \u201chealth and recovery,\u201d the 44-year-old RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race alum spoke out on social media on Sunday (May 10) about her health situation, and what actually happened to the drag superstar.<\/p>\n

\u201cHi friends, I\u2019m back out of the hospital,\u201d Katya began, captioning a selfie.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had to do an emergency abdominal surgery. There was a bowel obstruction in my small intestine. They had to decompress my stomach, flush out of intestines and remove and reattach a small part of my small and large intestine,\u201d she revealed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was in the hospital with an NG tube down my nose into stomach pumping fluid up and out of my body for 10 days without being able to eat or drink. It was absolute hell on earth,\u201d Katya admitted.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut the tube is gone, I am eating and drinking and am back at home. Thanks to the surgical team at Cedars Sinai especially Dr Matthew Bloom and Dr Sydney Caputo (sp?) and shoutout to Nurse Audrey for being a baller. Hallelujah.\u201d<\/p>\n

We are wishing Katya a speedy recovery!<\/p>\n
