Suggest Treatment For Gallbladder Stones

Hello! My sister is 57 years old and she has a 16mm stone in her gallbladder. Its non-symptomatic but she does suffer from occasional acid reflux and gas. She had a complete pericardiectomy in May 2016. She is pre-diabetic, has high blood pressure, high cholesterol and is boderline obese. What will be the best course of action to treat the gallbladder stone? Will surgically removing it be a good idea with her current health issues? Thank you.
