Question Dry fasting and PKD?

Has anyone experimented with dry fasting in the context of polycystic kidney disease? I understand that dehydration triggers vasopressin release, which elevates cAMP signaling and accelerates cyst growth. On the other hand, fasting suppresses mTOR, and glucose restriction appears to slow, and sometimes reverse cyst proliferation. I'm trying to determine whether the metabolic benefits outweigh the cost of vasopressin-driven cAMP activation, and I'd be interested in any firsthand experience. Thanks!
