Hi,
You should not worry about the gall stone if you are not having symptoms due to the stones (As I did not get history about symptoms). For 1.3 cm gall stones medications are not sufficient, need to go for surgery.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
