Up to about 200 days
10 years with out a host.
as long as they want
It can go up to 18 years without eating.
4-6 minutes and brain damage sets in
Not long without any at all! Because red blood cells make up alot of the blood and then there would be nothing to pump to the heart or anythng to carry oxygen and stuff.
they have been around since about 1789 when there were stories of blood sucking monsters

How long can a leech live after filling themselves with blood?
The COMMON FLEA doesn't eat- it gets all the nutrients it needs from sucking the blood of humans or animals. SAND FLEAS eat dead skin.(yuck!)Adult fleas must feed on blood in order to reproduce; however, adults can live for long periods without feeding.
In the average aquarium a sucking loach or Chinese algae eater it's more common name will live around 7 - 10 years, but claims of up to 15 years are not uncommon.
By missing an insulin shot, the blood sugar will stay high, as the insulin is used to move it out of the blood stream. The length of time a diabetic cat can live without insulin depends on the size, age and overall health.

The most popular leech, because of its use in the medical field is the Hirudo medcinalis. After attaching to a host, the leech can fill itself in about 45 minutes, expanding up to twelve times its original size in blood! On that full belly the leech can survive up to 6 months. Giving the optimal conditions... a leech only feeds twice a year!
You can live a long normal life without it. You just have to change how you eat
