Great question. Diabetes is a good example of a chronic condition, because it is ongoing, where insulin may be taken to keep it manageable so that one can live normally. What I find compelling, is diet can become equally effective and even may free one of the need to take insulin. Either way, the disease is considered chronic.
Therefor, a chronic condition is one that becomes manageable through certain necessary needed behaviors. And this is why regarding my Lyme disease, I use the term "in remission" to describe it as chronic, yet controllable. Hope this helps with your question.
Godspeed,
