Wiggle Greg under the weather

It's not been a good time for Australian entertainers.
There's been quite a bit of talk in the blogosphere about the Wiggles' Greg Page having to pull out of the band's tour because of health problems.
I've put in a call to Wiggles publicity to see if they can give us any more details. But straight from the Wiggle's mouth, here's a Greg post I found on a Wiggles message board recently:
it is with regret that I must let you know that I have to leave the tour due to illness. In the past two days, I have experienced symptoms in my health which have caused me concern. I was hospitalised yesterday, and doctors could not find anything medically wrong with me, and again today I am still experiencing the same symptoms.
I have had numerous bouts of this over the past 8 months, but they are getting more frequent, and more concerning, so I have decided that I must go home, rest and seek further medical advice (if appropriate) to asure myself that I will be okay for future tours.
It would appear from some medical opinions that I did not give myself enough time to recover from my recent hernia surgeries before coming back to touring. Whilst I have been feeling fine on tour, when I get home, I usually fall flat, and suffer from severe exhaustion. Yesterday, it hit me very quckly, and very hard, and prevented me from performing, and that was the case today as well.
Please forgive me for my illness at the moment, and understand that I wish to take all steps possible to ensure that I am back on deck as soon as possible so that I can continue touring without frequent interruptions.
In the meantime, Sam Moran will be filling in for me. He does a fantastic job, and everyone that has seen Sam perform in my place has had nothing but commendation for him.
To everyone that has come to see the Wiggles in the past 12 months, I know that there have been many instances where I have not been there, but thank you for understanding and thank you for your suport and your attendance at our concerts.
I look forward to wiggling with you all again very soon,
Greg Wiggle
