Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Gall bladder stones needs to be removed by means of surgery. Treatment with medications doesn't seem to be much effective in dissolving the stones.
Surgery is performed by endoscopy, which is called 'key hole' surgery.
Kindly consult Surgeon promptly in this regard for clinical evaluation and appropriate management.
Hope the information provided helps.
