Hi, My dad was diagnosed for acute pancreatitis a month back. He was hospitalized for a week. He had a history of gallstones(still present). Doctor suspect it may be because of gallstones(but no proof it). He was not operated that time as there was a multiple organ failure and he recovered after a week. And also he was not fit for surgery.Now doctor says he is clinically ok and recovered and the gall bladder has to be removed. Is there a way that this can be controlled/treated without a surgery?
