Cast. Wait a month for results. If necessary Cast again. Repeat as necessary.
The symptoms are quite noticeable but I would figure you would get 18 to 24 attempts minimum (i.e. 1 1/2 to 2 years) before you would likely lose the patient.
People with money do silly things...
The question is whether it got written down/survived in oral tradition.

With the spell Body-Reading, getting information about this kind of experiment isn't terribly difficult. It's a truly useful spell that can give a mage/researcher a lot of good information.
I'm surprised, tbh, that Body-Reading isn't a prereq for most Healing spells...after all, how do you know how to direct the magic to do the healing? Does the mana know to fix
that hole, but not
that one? Does casting a Healing spell negate the weight training workout you did earlier?

My current
worldbuilding project. You can find the Adventure Logs of the campaign
here. I try to write them up as narrative prose, with illustrations. As such, they are "embellished" accounts of the play sessions.
Link of the moment:
Bestiary of Plants. In a world of mana, plants evolved to use it as an energy source.
It is also the new home of the
Alaconius Lectures, a series of essays about the various Colleges of Spells.
