Hello,
You may need to get further evaluated. You should do an abdominal ultrasound and liver chemistry. Also, do a total blood count and formula.
If the gallbladder stones are the main problem that is causing the pain then surgery is the only solution.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
