General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Thanks for posting your question on HCM!
Age and gender not mentioned.
I can understand your problem related to gall stones. Do you have any pain abdomen, fever, jaundice or itching???
Milk of calcium cholecystitis is due to abnormal accumulation of calcium carbonate in the gallbladder. . Calcium in the bile may be liquid or it may form a paste-like mass. The stone or stones of calcium carbonate may cause an obstruction of the gallbladder outflow tract or cystic duct or pass into the common bile duct or into the duodenum.
The medicines prescribed may be helpful in dissolving the stones and to treat the infection.
Kindly consult the surgeon regarding future course of action.

I find this answer helpful
