I've just found out I have a 1.5 cm right renal simple upper polar cortical cyst. There's no hydronephrosis or calculus, but there's minimal free fluid in the pelvis. I'm really worried about what kind of treatment I might need and how quickly this can be resolved. Can you help me understand what steps I should take next?

Treatment for a simple kidney cyst depends on whether it's causing symptoms or blocking urine or blood flow: No symptoms: A doctor may monitor the cyst periodically. Symptoms: A health care provider may recommend treatment, such as: Sclerotherapy: A long needle is used to puncture the cyst under ultrasound guidance, then the cyst is drained and filled with a solution to harden it. This procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis with local anesthesia. Laparoscopy: A surgeon uses a laparoscope, a tube with a small video camera, to locate the cyst. The cyst is drained, then removed or burned. This procedure is performed in a hospital with general anesthesia and may require a one or two day stay.

I've been having some issues that are making me worried. I'm a 21-year-old male, and I've noticed that if I drink a lot of water, within just 15 to 30 minutes I get an urgent need to pee and can't seem to hold it for long. I end up going to the bathroom 2 to 3 times within an hour. Also, if I eat more than usual, I feel like I need to use the latrine right away. I do have a 7mm kidney stone, and my doctor advised me to drink plenty of water. But now, with these symptoms, I'm starting to wonder if they could be related to diabetes. Could that be a possibility? It's really starting to bother me, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
