In medicine, what is relapse?
In medicine, relapse or recidivism is a recurrence of a past (typically medical) condition. For example, multiple sclerosis and malaria often exhibit peaks of activity and sometimes very long periods of dormancy, followed by relapse or recrudescence.
In the context of drug use, relapse or reinstatement of drug-seeking behavior, is a form of spontaneous recovery that involves the recurrence of pathological drug use after a period of abstinence. Relapse is often observed in individuals who have developed a drug addiction or either form of drug dependence.

Reminds me of my great uncle Charlie. He married my grandmother’s “baby sister” sometime around 1935 or so. He always repeated the obvious. He and my aunt never had children, but he was always quick with a game, a riddle, or a special little toy whenever we kids were around. He’s a very fond memory now.

Ellie Zucchiatti, Not only that, but sometimes what they complain about doesn't even make sense. Who cares about Tesla. It's no worse than people saying 'Got it Correct'.

Vince Savage, I agree. A few people are constantly picked on and it really is not nice to read.

John Kirkwood-Avila, if he or she did that you/ they would dislike Tesla's comment! Like the comment or don't anything! Please everyone leave Tesla do their own thing! They are NOT hurting you! Please!

Vince Savage - I have a question, but doubt I will ever see the answer. You state Tesla shows remarkable restraint - how do people see responses to comments they have left? I never see the same question again - and if I do, they have new comments. It's possible Tesla has never seen feedback on their comments. How will I see any comments to this querie?

This question is an insult t our intelligence. The circle graph agrees.

Vince Savage, I concur completely and to quote Aaron W. Matthews “The most self-absorbed people display an ironic pension for the smallest minds and the largest mouths.”

Fred Mayes, is it possible they don't care? Their is a way just not sure how but another woman said she comes back. Only way I have is first question by reloading finished quiz. If you have the time check it out. Tesla is very smart so chances are they would know if it could be done. Now myself I respond to what you said so therefore why should I care what you say back? I'm not wasting time arguing..

Linda Spreng, my point exactly

Publicola, I think I could pick at your answers myself and have cause you are right down nasty which is way worse than got it or missed it. We ain't talking to you so get over yourself and leave Tesla alone too. They are not hurting you
Char
I knew that one

John Kirkwood-Avila, Why does it bother you so much? What makes you the master of what he/she SHOULD say?
Jenny Devereaux
Same for me Publicola, I don’t understand why they feel the need to do it, and why brag about getting it wrong?

Bingo I was a pre-med student in college.

Anita Clark Morton, Actually, I think people saying "got it correct" or "missed it" is worse. I'm tired of having to scroll through those comments just to find the comments that are worth reading. Often, I don't bother.
