Chaudhry Shujat was operated upon for two long hours and has been advised complete rest for two weeks. 

On his return from the hospital, Chaudhry Shujat said he was suffering from this disease for quite some time now. He received treatment from Germany, Austria, England, France and USA and finally Pakistani doctors successfully conducted his operation.
