  1. Go get your checks done fella's, had mine this morning.History of it in our family so worth keeping an eye on it.
     
  2. Think I'd go a bit further and say even if there is apparently no family history (something that many, including mine, didn't like to talk about years ago ) get checked...its only a blood test.
