Hello
Thank for asking to HCM
If you do not have any clinical symptoms as long as the pancreas is concern and the pathology that pancreas have till then it is nothing to worry, now once some suspected lesion is there then it needs to be clear the doubt it can not be left like that only because it may be some silent kind of lesion may manifest later on so better to get done the MRI and other tests else it is nothing to worry, hope this information helps.
