Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Porcelain gall bladder is premalignant condition. It has to be removed at the earliest. Your blood sugars can easily controlled by insulin therapy. As soon as they are brought under control you can get operated. With a competent surgeon and good ICU back up for at least 3to 5 days you should be doing well.

Hi madam.
There are 2 options. You can wait and risk that porcealin gallbladder become malignancy or some other complications may develop. Secondly, you can undergo cholecystectomy which is recommended and indicated in this cases. I suggest to do it .this is a routine procedure today.it can be done laparoscopicaly. YOu are young, sugar and lipids levels arent contraindication and dont have big impact on outcome so this is safe for you and I really think you should not be afraid of surgery. Wish you good health.
