Brief Answer:
Yes, you can wait a month.

Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Yes, it is fine to wait a month. For sure you have this stones for many years. As there is no inflammation, you may wait for sure. Actually you have been waiting through all this years, so a month wont make any difference.
Just avoid fatty foods, spicy foods, fried foods, alcohol, coffee and you should be fine.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
