Players with chronic health conditions


Recently stumbled upon this article about playing tennis with epilepsy.

 

And, wondered whether anyone knew of any chronic health  conditions of our players past and present? 

 

I know Fran Jones has Ectrodactyly Ectodermal Dysplasia, Elena Balatcha had a few issues prior to her passing (what a warrior she was), I have recollection of Jamie Baker having issues too.

Well, Danielle Collins who has now just made the Aussie Open final suffers from endometriosis, which is a horribly debilitating condition for women, and unfortunately quite common. She's been living on anti-inflammatories for years. Finally had proper diagnosis and surgery. Which she says has freed up her life no end - and we can see the result

Sorry, I know it's not GB but seemed relevant this week.

Katie Boulter suffers from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, although she says she's now 'officially' fine (i.e. managing it perfectly, or so she claims).
