hi.
noted history of gallbladder stones. it is best if you do a follow-up consult with your doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. the usual clinical symptoms of a gallstone disease are abdominal pain (usually epigastric to right upper quadrant in location, intermittent and colicky character, aggravated by fatty food intake), nausea & vomiting may also be present, fever and leukocytosis. if there is obstruction, patient may also experience yellowing of the skin and mucosa and elevated bilirubin levels. abdominal ultrasound and liver function tests may also be requested for further evaluation. other diagnostics and management (medical and/or surgical, cholecystectomy, if indications are found) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
