The stones were an incidental find on ultrasound and if they're not bothering you, leave them alone. Lithotripsy can be effective and there are some drugs that can help dissolve gallbladder stones. Change your diet immediately though as the gallbladder stones can cause problems later. Drink more water and eat less fat in your diet to control gallbladder stones and sludge.

According to my research online, what causes gallstones is too much cholesterol, too much bilirubin, or not enough bile salts, or when the gallbladder does not empty as it should. for whatever reason.
The people most likely at risk for gallstones are:
women
people over age 60
Native Americans
Mexican Americans
Overweight men and women
people who fast or lose a lot of weight quickly
pregnant women, women on hormone replacement therapy, and women who use birth control pills
Surgery to remove the gallbladder is the most common way to treat symptomatic gallstones.
Fortunately, the gallbladder is an organ that people can live without.
The most common operation to remove the gallbladder is called laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Cholelithiasis is the presence of one or more calculi (gallstones) in the gallbladder. In the US, 20% of people > 65 yr have gallstones, and most disorders of the extrahepatic biliary tract arise from gallstones. Gallstones may be asymptomatic or cause biliary colic but do not cause dyspepsia (indigestion). Other common consequences of gallstones include cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder); biliary tract obstruction (usually as a result of bile duct stones), sometimes with infection (cholangitis-inflammation of bile ducts); and gallstone pancreatitis. Diagnosis is usually based on ultrasound. If cholelithiasis causes symptoms or complications, cholecystectomy (surgical removal of the gall-bladder. Usually advised for stones, inflammation and occasionally for new growths) becomes necessary.
Try alternative medicine such as Homoeopathy, Herbo-chemicals etc. Reduce fat and oils in the diet.
Please see the web pages for more details on Gallstones.

The best treatment is to have your gallbladder removed. All of the other treatments are temporary (the stones return).
The surgery is done laparoscopic (4 holes in tummy)and you usually stay in the hospital overnight.

As soon as this starts to bother you RUN don't walk to get them removed. I can tell you that it is truly painful when they do start bothering you. My advice is to get the gallbladder removed before the pain kicks in.

lithotripsy can be done if the size of the stones is just enuf to be crushed. if they are already big, then surgery is recommended.
