[|AI|]  Hi.noted history of gallstones and kidney stones. Unlike your kidney stones, gallstones have lesser chance of being dissolved by medications especially when it has been there for a long time already. It is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. Other diagnostics (such as repeat ultrasound, liver function tests, blood counts, etc.) and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly. If your symptoms are becoming more frequent, I advise you to consult with your surgeon with urgency and schedule surgical intervention electively, as emergent surgeries or procedures has higher risks and chances in developing post-operative complications. Definitive treatment for gallstones is cholecystectomy or surgical removal of your gallbladder along with your gallstones. It could be done laparoscopically (gold standard) or through open technique. Low fat and low salt diet is also advised. Hope this helps. Good day!!~ Chat Doctor.
