Not always. There will be times when all symptoms disappear after a flare up and no pain meds will be needed. This can last for years. There will be other times when all other symptoms go away but meds will be needed to control residual pain. Doctors can reduce your meds until they find a "maintenance" dose that helps control all symptoms, cramping, diarreah and pain.
