Kidney cyst Sclerotherapy experiences

Hello! I do not have pkd, so i'm sorry to intrude here, but i have no idea where else to ask this question on reddit. I have a large cyst that has been causing me a lot of pain, and i'm getting it drained in less than a week. The interventional radiologist said it was up to me if i want to do sclerotherapy with the aspiration or not. So far i can only find medical studies talking about it, and not a lot of actual people. I have read every single thread on here mentioning sclerotherapy, and i did read a few really scary sounding experiences here, where the fluid leaked and it was really painful and burned? I'm scared of injuring my kidney or surrounding organs, but also scared this cyst will just come back. Has anyone had this and had a good experience?
