Not sure where to post this so I posted it here. Sorry if it belongs somewhere else.

If someone goes into remission and then comes out of it, are the odds in their favor that they can go into remission again?

Just curious what everyone's thoughts are on this...

I certainly hope so. It makes sense to me. If someone has been in remission once, but due to circumstances is there no longer; it is perfectly logical that it can happen again once the person figures out what caused the remission to end. Things like a change in diet for some reason, illness, prolonged stress, change in personal habits, etc. might cause symptoms to come back. Once those things resolve or you are able to take control of them, then I believe it is possible to once again be symptom free, or at least symptom light.
