From episodic to chronic - how many years?

I guess all of us episodic sufferers fear that we will some day find that the beast never leaves. I'm just curious - for how long were you an episodic before becoming chronic?

21 years episodic, 3 years 5 months chronic. Last figure I recall is 15% of CH suffers are chronic. Odds look good for ya. Best of luck. TTFN

Hi Dan, My first two years I had cycles twice per year, if I still remember it correctly. Then from '85 until '98 my remissions only lasted 2-6 weeks which basically was bordering on chronic but not quite there. "98 the clock started on me being chronic. I hope this answers your question some.

Got mine in 1969 and they disappeared 22 years later. I was episodic for 22 years. Charlie

I began having CH's in September of '87, and even went through a 1 1/2 period between episodes... Became chronic in February of 98 and been chronic since. Sucks to be me, sucks to be you, sucks what the beast has done to this group. Chronic and not fucking enjoying it yet, FREEk

Episodic 91-95; Chronic 95-Now. Hopefully this won't happen to you. I have faith that someday someone "in the know" will care enough to figure out the cause. Just hope that I live long enough to see it and share in the celebration with all of our fellow suffers. I think that our surveys should help if anyone cares to listen.
