Return of ill health (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

relapse

(Other definitions for relapse that I've seen before include "Medical setback" , "setback in health terms" , "Fall ill again after rallying" , "Slip back to former state" , "Backsliding" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
