Pls mention again why did u underwent for USG , whether it was due to pain in abdomen in right upper quadrant or whether it was a incidental finding , calcification of GB or porcelain gall bladder might be a premalignant occurrence , so better go for laparoscopic cholecystectomy asap Get well soon :)

Calcification of the Gall bladder is more troublesome than just a stone. It would be safer to have the Gall bladder removed.
