How do I know if a Prepared Statement is being Cached?

I have been reusing the same variable $stmt in my PHP script to write prepared statements:

$stmt = $dbh->prepare("SELECT column_A FROM Table1 WHERE id=?");

$stmt->bindValue(1, $id, PDO::PARAM_INT);

$stmt->execute();

....



$stmt = $dbh->prepare("UPDATE Table2 SET column_B=? WHERE column_A=?");

$stmt->bindValue(1, $name);

$stmt->bindValue(2, $column_A);

$stmt->execute();

My question is, how do I know if the two statements are being written to cache and that the second statement did not overwrite the first statement though both statements are sharing the same variable name?
