Nadiya is a popular member of the Strictly Come dancing professional line-up.
She joined the show in 2017, and since then has built up an army of followers.
These fans are all keen to know how Nadiya is doing - and when she'll be back rehearsing for Strictly.
The two-time Ballroom and Latin Dance World Champion has now given an update on how she's doing.
Taking to her Instagram Stories , Nadiya posted a message which read: "I've had so many kind messages over the past 48 hours - Thank you for your love and support.
"So many questions too, so I just wanted to let you know that I had another scan today - just to check things over - and some more physio from the Strictly team and I'll be back on that dancefloor tomorrow.
"I feel a lot more like myself today, can't wait to be back with my @bbcstrictly family and looking forward for the new series."
HOSPITAL DASH
Nadiya left fans concerned earlier this week when she was rushed to hospital.
Alongside a picture of her in a hospital bed, she wrote: "Well… where do I start? What a 24 hours!
"Thank you so much for all the messages, love and support. I just wanted you to know that I am ok.
"I had a fall in training yesterday and landed on my back. I was really worried for a while and I was so thankful to the Strictly family and medical team who really looked after me."
She praised the "kind and caring" hospital staff, before revealing the smile on her face in the picture didn't reflect the emotions she'd experienced in the hours prior.
"I'm smiling in the picture but it was really scary and there were a few tears as I had to lie still for hours but I was given the all-clear after an x-ray and allowed to go home," she wrote.
"I've got some physio today but I will be back on that dance floor soon and I'll be ready to shine and sparkle in the new series of the biggest show on TV.
"I can't wait for you to see it. Keep dancing!"
An insider said of the fall: 'It looked pretty nasty and no one was taking any chances. The Strictly crew rushed into action and she was stretchered out.'
A London Ambulance Service spokesperson said: "We were called at 12:37pm on Tuesday 12 August to reports of an incident at Regent's Park Road, NW1. We sent an ambulance crew to the scene and treated one person before taking them to hospital.'
