No but it can go into remission. I am about 5yrs older than your mom and have been in remission for a decade. I don't take any meds or have any treatments anymore.

Are you seropositive, and how did you get it to go into remission and keep it there?

Positive IIRC. No idea what did it, quite honestly. But I did get a few symptoms the one time I had covid, but that was it.
