The country legend was forced to cancel several shows after being hospitalised over the weekend.
The 76-year-old described her time in the Kentucky hospital as "one scary night" in an official statement. She said: "I'm feeling better and just gonna take it easy for a couple of weeks".
Her spokesperson explained that Lynn had "awoke on her tour bus complaining that she was having a hard time breathing".
The statement added that she is now recovering at her Hurricane Hills home in Tennessee. She is expected to return to the stage at Knoxville, Tennessee on November 3.
