I can tell you that ten years ago I had an extremely rare kidney cancer and when I got PC one of my first questions is if it is related and my urologist said no. He said that it would be insanely rare to have PC caused by another cancer or for PC to cause a different cancer itself.

Just because I shared this every time something like this comes up: coincidentally, the same urologist took my kidney that took my prostate, and he used the same robot and even re-used the same incisions. Kind of crazy really. I just hope if something ELSE comes up (because I'm apparently perpetually screwed) it's something the Da Vinci can do and it's in his area of expertise, then get three uses from the same robot and incisions 😂

Thanks for your input! I've much perusing to do, and have actually been lurking for about a week up here reading. Collective knowledge and anecdotes are so important to share. I thank you.
