00:00Hi, I'm digital reporter Amy Seddon.

00:04The Bolton comedian, Paddy McGuinness, has shared a rather hilarious but embarrassing

00:09health story with his fans via Instagram.

00:13Take a look at the video next.

00:15Oh, I've had a bad chest infection the last few days, it came from nowhere.

00:23So yesterday morning, honestly, I thought I'm going to cancel a couple of tour nights

00:29in.

00:30I've not cancelled a tour night ever due to illness, I don't think so.

00:34I went to the doctor's yesterday morning, thanked the Lord, I said, look doctor, I've

00:39got nine tour dates left, I need to get through them, I can't cancel them, give me the strongest

00:47killer antibiotics you can get.

00:50He said, don't worry, I've got your back.

00:53He said, you're only going to need six of these, because they're really strong.

00:57He said, take two straight away, I said, no problem, doctor.

01:00I went to the pharmacy.

01:01I live in a little village, the pharmacy there, I normally know my family, I get all the kids

01:06stuff from there, lovely.

01:09Give the lady my prescription, she took it away, she typed it away, looked at the screen,

01:15looked up at me, looked at the screen again, looked up at me, thought, what's up with that?

01:22Came out, while I'm stood there, I thought, I wonder what they are, these tablets, got

01:27my phone out, typed into Google, first thing that came up, cure for chlamydia.

01:35Cure for chlamydia?

01:38I've got a bloody chest infection.

01:41Oh my God, my nail will be dirt in the village.

01:45What, what, what, what, doxycylline I think, I'll find out, I'll put them on here.

01:53Apparently, they kill everything, but chlamydia is the first one, and before the mail online

01:58go into a meltdown with all the bullshit clickbaits, I've not got chlamydia, I've got a bloody

02:02chest infection.

02:03So, I managed to do last night in Salford, I've got a second night tonight, and honestly,

02:09I am feeling better every day.

02:11And then I've got Blackpool, we're filming Blackpool at the Opera House, so put your

02:16best gear on for that, looking nice and bonny for the filming.

02:20And two nights in Leeds, Leeds, Leeds, over to Ireland, to the Mighty Island, and finishing

02:25in Scotland.

02:26Tour done, and I cannot wait, honestly, it's been brilliant, I've loved it, and thanks

02:32for all your feedback.
