gall bladder is only removed when stone cause pain or obstructive jaundice. if your mother is having repeated pain that is unbearable then she should get her bladder removed. long term complications aren't much except for mild indigestion problems and in diabetics there is high risk of infection post op. if the pain isn't causing much trouble then it's better to not go for surgery.
