If you could be tested for BP and it may be proven (conclusively) that you have BP, but not that you don't have it, would you want to be tested?

What if testing negative would mean you would no longer receive treatment for BP as a result? Let's assume, in this particular scenario, that the chances of testing negative even though you have BP are negligible (but there still is a chance).

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
