Multiple Polyps on the Gallbladder wall

Question

Asked for Female, 26 Years

I went for an abdominal scan, the scan showed multiple polyps in the gallbladder wall. The size currently is 0.45cm. I have been asked to get follow up scans in the next couple of months. I have had sudden bouts of stomach pain in the past, I think this may be the cause. I have a family history of cancer. I wanted to know if my chances of developing Gallbladder cancer is doubled now? My maternal grandfather's side has a history of cancer.
