Jimmy Barnes has given fans an update after undergoing emergency surgery earlier this month.
The 68-year-old Cold Chisel singer recently underwent hip surgery after experiencing severe pain following a series of performances in New Zealand.
Last weekend he let his fans know via Instagram how happy he was that he could finally recover at home.
The rock star shared a photo of himself recovering, smiling all day as he ate dinner in bed.
He also shared photos of his vegetable garden, complete with a variety of different flowers and cute cherub figurines.
The Working Class Man hitmaker subsequently admitted he was ‘feeling great’.
‘I can’t tell you how wonderful it feels to be back in my own bed, back in our house and beautiful garden. Of course I’m being spoiled too.’
Jimmy recently experienced pain in his hip and was rushed to the hospital for surgery.

At the time, he informed his fans about his health condition via social media.
“I have some bad news, unfortunately,” Jimmy wrote in a Facebook post.
‘As I was leaving Dunedin (New Zealand) on Thursday morning I felt a shooting pain in my hip. By late last night the pain had become unbearable so I went to hospital.
“The doctors have recommended medical treatment as soon as possible, followed by some physical therapy to address the problem. These doctors don’t mess around!”
This past weekend he took to Instagram to tell his fans how happy he was to finally be home to recover and shared photos of his vegetable garden
‘If all goes according to plan, I expect to be fully recovered within six weeks.’
Jimmy continues: ‘However, this unexpected operation does have consequences for my solo performances in August and September.’
‘Ticket holders will be contacted with more information in the coming days as soon as we have new plans.
“As you know, I hate to disappoint anyone, but I also never compromise on the quality of my performances. I apologize for any inconvenience this will cause everyone – I HATE moving shows! – but thank you for your understanding.”
The post included a photo of Jimmy giving a thumbs up from his hospital bed as his wife Jane poses next to him.

Jimmy’s cancelled performances include concerts in Wyong, Toowoomba, Thirroul, Canberra and the Sydney Opera House.
It was only last month that it appeared that Jimmy was making a good recovery from the shocking health condition he found himself in last year, which required open-heart surgery.
The singer looked fit as he ‘trained’ in the boxing ring.
While on holiday with his wife Jane in Thailand, he shared a photo on Instagram of himself posing in the gym of his luxury hotel.
The singer was all smiles in the adorable photo as he held his arms in a boxer’s pose for the camera as he humorously prepared for a fight.
He looked healthy and confident in the photo and flashed his signature mischievous smile into the camera.
