Slip back into sickness (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

relapse

(Other definitions for relapse that I've seen before include "Deterioration in health" , "Take a turn for the worse" , "Fall back into bad health" , "Unexpected deterioration" , "Degenerate like pleaser" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
