Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
You should consult a good surgeon and proceed to Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy to get proper relief. Gallstones aren't going anywhere and they'll become a problem sooner or later. So in my opinion if any absolute contraindication to surgery isn't there you should go for it
Next Steps
Consult a good laparoscopic surgeon
