Guns N' Roses rocker Axl Rose is on the road to recovery after an undisclosed medical issue forced him to cancel a recent show in Scotland.

Rose, 60, shared a statement to Twitter Thursday thanking fans for their messages of support and apologizing for pulling the plug on Tuesday night's show in Glasgow.

He said that he's been doing well as he heeds advice from his doctor, and is moving ahead with Friday's show in Munich, Germany as planned.

"I've been following Dr's orders, getting rest, working [with] a vocal coach n' sorting out [our] sound issues," he wrote. "Seems good so far."

He continued: "Thanks again 4 everyone's concern! At the end of the day it's about giving u the fans the best of [ou]rselves n' the best time we can give u n' that's all I, the band n' crew [are] focused on. See u in Munich!!"

Guns N' Roses previously announced Monday night that Glasgow's show would be canceled "due to illness and medical advice."

"Sadly, due to illness and medical advice, GN'R will not be able to perform in Glasgow, tomorrow 5-July-2022," the statement said. "We are working on rescheduling options for this show so please hold onto your tickets and wait for a further update. We appreciate your understanding and patience."

While the cause for the canceled show remains unclear, Rose told the crowd in London on Sunday night that he'd recently paid a visit to the doctor, and as a result would be switching up some of the setlist.

"So I went to the doctors and all that stuff. I slept here last night to make sure," he said in a video shared on Twitter. "So I'll be switching the songs around a little bit, vocally. I hope you don't mind. We would like to keep going."

The setback came days after Carrie Underwood joined the group for two surprise appearances in London on Friday and Saturday night.

The country star sang "Sweet Child O' Mine," and later rejoined the band to close out the show with "Paradise City."
