Brief Answer:
Get a safe gall bladder removal

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.

I understand your concern.

Its extremely important that you get operated for your Cholelilithiasis. This needs removal in the form of cholecystectomy.

Frequent Pain killers are not safe in heart diseased patients.

You can undergo surgery in the form of lap Cholecystectomy. This is a minimally invasive procedure which heart patients can undergo with your current cardiac status.

Anaesthetist and internal medicine specialist will evaluate your case properly for any risks before subjecting you to surgery.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
