Queen Elizabeth II has left a London hospital after being treated for gastroenteritis over the weekend.

The 86-year-old monarch was hospitalized on Sunday for the first time since a 2003 knee operation.

On Monday, she left the King Edward VII hospital without assistance before being driven away in a motorcade.

Buckingham Palace said the Queen was in “good spirits” before her departure, and that all signs indicated that her illness was not serious.

As a precaution, her official engagements for the week, including a trip to Rome, were postponed or canceled.

Queen Elizabeth II was hospitalized on Sunday.

The British monarch was taken to King Edward VII’s Hospital in London after suffering from symptoms of gastroenteritis, said a palace spokesman.

The spokesman added a “decision was taken on medical advice to take her from Windsor (Castle) to hospital,” and that it was ”a precautionary measure.”

The Queen is expected to spend two days recuperating in the hospital from the flu-like symptoms; however, all of her official engagements have been either canceled or postponed, including a two-day trip to Italy on March 6-7.

At 86, the Queen Elizabeth has been in overall good health, and was last in the hospital in 2003 for a knee operation.
