The textbook definition is misleading: Cycles do not have to be regular in time/duration/etc.; the location/intensity, etc. of pain may wander/change over time. Especially with newly emerging cases, it may take months, even years, before some kind of stability develops.

Your main defense is to be aware of a developing attack/cycle so that you can get the right meds on hand. Beyond that, being flexible and not excessively worried about changes are good qualities to develop.
