If you know, and want us here to know, I would want to know.
Thank you, Ripose, for letting us know. Now I know.
If it were me, I am uncertain about knowing 'definitively'.
I have made certain life choices that inform my longtime physician/PCP that in fact I do not care to know, e.g. my choice for no colonoscopy, no more mammograms, pap&pelvic annual exams.
While in fact I do want the TBI/CHI followup brain MRIs, ct scans, and lung monitoring, bone density scan to be aware of any osteoporosis issues. If that's ironic or seemingly contradictory to my stance on knowing, then so be it. The latter tests have to do with quality of life present and future; the others hold for me the potential trigger for determining my state of mind for a continuing life or death sentence. Capice?
How are you and how is your family, Ripose?
My best to you and yours.
