“The bad news is: we didn't find Lord Lucan,” he joked, referring to the peer who disappeared in the 70s after being suspected of murder.
Some of Lord Sugar’s fans commiserated, sharing their own experiences of the procedure.
And other said they were glad he was doing well and that he’d been given good results.
However, some people were left scratching their heads over the fact that the reality star chose to share the photograph on the platform.
“Over share much?” one person posted, as another said it was “TMI”.
“Well… there’s something I wasn’t expecting (or wanting) to see on Twitter this morning!” said someone else.
Another baffled fan asked why anyone would share such an image with strangers.
“Ever wonder if you overshare sometimes?” asked somebody else.
“I didn’t need to see this,” remarked one of the star’s followers.
“Thanks for that shoogs, just what I wanted to see as I start on my pasta bake…” joked another fan.
One person wrote: “That’s enough internet for one day!”
