Hi dear,
As your mother are diagnosed with gallstones, It is enough for the upper abdominal pain. The nature of this pain is ,it will start in and around the epigastric region and localize to Upper right quadrant. Nuasea and vomiting are generally present. As there is CBO,that may cause inflammation of gallblader and form fever. Non specific symptoms also may be there including bloating and indigestion.
Gallstones which sizes below 1 cm can be managed with out surgery, but here there is common bile duct obstruction that may cause inflammation of gall bladder that may spread to other parts, so it is better to opt surgical management.
Liquid form food or low fat diet must be followed.
With thanks
