Her Majesty the Queen has fallen ill and been advised by doctors to suspend official duties, the Royal Household Bureau announced on Saturday.

The announcement said that early on Saturday morning while Her Majesty was exercising she became dizzy and staggered a little but was still fully conscious.

The Queen was given an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) examination and doctors found a slight shortage of blood in the cerebellum, but could see no bleeding.

The doctors treated her with a blood transfusion and are keeping her under close watch.

The Queen has been advised to suspend all official duties for a period.

A large number of people turned up at Siriraj Hospital on Sunday to wish Their Majesties a quick recovery.
