If u have symptoms relate to gall stones, if size is more than 1 cm, if past episo of pain related to gall stones, family history of gall bladder cancer - Better remove gall bladder. If nothing - just chill. Medicine for gall stones is not much useful and the stones recur once u stop medicine. Removal of gall bladder has some side effects but are usually short term in majority.
