Jack Get Well Soon

Your advice is 100%. My brother succumbed to prostate cancer last year he was 53.

Although I procrastinated going to the doctor for years, that incident made me realize that the sooner the better. Thankfully my PSA is very low.

But this is not about me.

Jack, get well.

So glad you are on the mend NJ. The best photographer of Mercedes cars I know.
Don't tell me you are selling the S class and moving to a GL???????
What is PSA, please? Should I know?
By the way I had an ML for a while and found sitting up high (the seat is higher above the car's floor about 14 inches versus 11-12 inches in normal cars) much more comfortable and natural on a long run. Seems to let the blood flow more freely through the legs than sittng low down -which is not really natural.
Wishing you a full recovery.

Yeah...I hear he is doing okay..:-) Thanks for your concerns.

Taking some blood thinner and seeing my doctors too often but doing fine.

As far as PSA is concerned I spoke to it in one of the threads. If you are over 40 then at your next annual physical ask your doctor about it. He should do some checks and that will keep you from being surprised about prostate cancer.

Thanks Jack. You hang in there.

You told me how good the 221 series was and I hope you've seen that the JD Power Initial Quality Survey has just placed it top large luxury car and least faults of all new cars on the market -in any category. Love my 220 but sounds like you were right!
