Amy hasn't revealed when she will return to the tour, which ends on 13th February, but admitted she will "be back doing what I love most in no time".
It's not the first time Crohn's Disease, a condition Amy has been battling for years, has kept her away from the dance floor.

Last year, whilst competing on Strictly Come Dancing with Tom Fletcher, the 31-year-old experienced a "scary" Crohn's flare-up and ended up in hospital.
Announcing the news in November, she told fans on social media: "Thanks for all the messages over the weekend. Unfortunately, I was missing from the show as I had an unexpected Crohn's flare-up and hospital admission in which I received unbelievable care. I'm recovering very well and certainly being well looked after and look forward to returning to the dance floor.
"Big thanks to lovely @saradaviescc and @tomfletcher for taking care of me (of all the days to be poorly, Ben was in Blackpool with the dance school).
She then revealed she was temporarily living with Tom and his family. "To the Fletchers who made sure I had everything and more at the hospital, have brought me back to theirs where the whole family are giving me all the love, care, burnt toast (Tom), unlimited supply of @mrsgifletcher clothes along with @tomfletcher sock choice you could possibly need, lots of drawings and pretend injections from my new doctors Buzz, Buddy and Max. Thank you, they really were sent to me."
