Singer Elton John reportedly got his appendix removed in a 45-minute procedure at a hospital and is feeling better.
The 66-year-old had to cancel his European tour in July after he felt uneasy while performing on stage and was later diagnosed with appendix abscess.
John, who has two sons with partner David Furnish, was treated at Monaco's Princess Grace hospital. He underwent the surgery Aug 1.
The 66-year-old is now recovering at his home in Nice, France and looking forward to returning to the stage, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
He told a friend: "I feel great."
A source said: "Elton is back in Nice playing with the boys now. He is a lot better and very positive after the operation."
"He still has to rest up but is determined to get back on the road next month and can't wait to see his fans who have sent thousands of get well soon messages," the source added.
