I think it's like many other medical conditions and so I'd ask you what is the prognosis for "asthma," "diabetes," or even "heart disease" where the person is taking the meds they're prescribed and eating right, working hard to live a healthy life? Can't know what might happen down the road, only what seems to be working now. Bipolar can have physical components that don't "cure" so it's not like she'll be able to stop paying attention to her health and say to heck with the meds or doctor checkups. I'd say, "what you see is what you get" just like for anyone else :-)
