Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M..Forum.
At the age of 86 years many patients forget many things and repeats many things.
This is normal thing .
As doctors got three biopsies and all normal.
So , why worry.
Your father-in-law may have dementia or senile degeneration.
In my opinion consult a psychiatrist and get his opinion.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
