Rachael Finch was admitted to hospital on Thursday and underwent a series of tests after suffering from a severe migraine.
The Miss Universe Australia winner turned fitness influencer, 35, documented her stay in a series of photographs posted to Instagram, including one of herself hooked up to an IV fluid bag.
‘When [my husband] Misha and I first met I used to get bad migraines,’ she wrote in the caption.
‘They haven’t said hello in years. This felt much worse though. No matter what I was given in hospital yesterday, the headache stayed.’
Rachael then revealed the doctors had given her a full check up with scans and a spinal fluid sample, before telling her to rest up and work on her recovery.
This procedure is often referred to as a ‘spinal tap’ and involves inserting a needle into the lower back to collect fluid for testing, or to administer medications, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological conditions.
‘Docs have taken pretty pics of my chest and re-tested me for all classic illnesses. They also got a sample of my spinal fluid. No stress, just needed some extra TLC from the people in blue.
‘What started as a fever and headache turned into what felt like a bomb about to explode in my head.

‘It wouldn’t go away for days no matter what I took. All doctors and nurses in hospital are simply wonderful. So grateful.’
The fitness expert explained that despite being in hospital she was sticking to her strict diet and showed what she had for breakfast.
She said she skipped the toasts and Weet-Bix and opted for a banana and health bar.
The Kissed Earth supplements founder has previously shared with Daily Mail Australia what her typical very healthy day on a plate is.
The model said she starts her day with a smoothie made from almond milk, avocado, frozen banana, spinach, nut butter and a scoop of her supplement brand Kissed Earth’s ‘Replenish Protein’ in vanilla or chocolate.

‘I also can’t go without my collagen coffee. It’s a black coffee with a scoop of collagen powder, medicinal mushrooms and maca powder blended,’ Rachael said.
For lunch Rachael enjoys a ‘macro bowl’ of eggs, grilled broccoli, kale, brown rice, tomato slices and some avocado on the side.
Dinner is grilled fish and steamed vegetables with roasted baby chat potatoes, a nice balance of protein, carbohydrates and fats which she aims to incorporate in every meal.
