I would say still symptomatic even with meds although I think the definition it’s persistent. So your symptoms don’t change much?

You seem to live a good life and I think it’s all about function anyways. If you can enjoy your living then isn’t that good enough? Function is the key!

It means it’s gotten to a point of no return. It’s unlikely you will get better, which is the case for sz anyway. I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Just live your life. Do your travels and enjoy that take away food.

I don’t feel it is that drastic. I think it means ‘repetitively more persistent’.

Chronic means long term. I think all sz is chronic but I am not sure.
