Hi, I think it was a surprise for you the gallstones and the indication of the doctors of ER for a surgery, but this is true: after a biliary colic the first indication is of course surgery or removing of gallbladder. Anywhere in our practice we can "risk and wait" if this was the first and a simple (without complications) biliary colic. So you can try on with Ursofalk 12 mg for kg weight, three times a day. But the results are scarce most of the time. Just an ultrasound after 3 month to see any change in stones size.
