Saina Nehwal fights illness

 July 30, 2009 - Saina Nehwal is fighting illness just weeks before the World Championships in her home country.  "I have been suffering from fever since Saturday but it's yesterday that I saw some pockmarks appearing on the skin. Initially I thought it must be pimples or boils but in the last couple of days some more pockmarks developed and I had this itchy feeling," Saina said from Hyderabad.  After a visit to the doctor it was confirmed that she is indeed suffering from chicken pox, and she has been put on bed rest for the next five days. Her situation will then be re-evaluated at that time.
