She told her 226k followers: "There wouldn't be a holiday Heaton-style unless something major happened.
"Last night I collapsed from severe dehydration. It just goes to show you need to drink lots of water.
"My problem was I had Bali belly at the same time. I was dripped up to an IV and I'm much better now.
"Be careful what you eat and drink in foreign countries, especially the ice, because I was not very well at all.
"I was very very very sick."
Michelle also admitted she had thrown up raw fish all over the restaurant, hotel and outside the taxi as she battled a brutal episode of food poisoning.
