Hello

Your findings suggests calculus in gall bladder with hiccup.

Hiccup and burping is a temporary stage and patient generally doesn't require any treatment.
Some patient may need combination of proton pump inhibitor(like patoprazole 40 mg)and domperidone for burping.
You may need chlopromazine for hiccup.

You need definitive treatment of gall bladder calculus i,e surgical removal of gall bladder(Cholecystectomy).
Gall bladder calculus is prone to infection and obstruction,so it is advised to get rid of calculus early.
Operation can be done after control if infection.You may need antibiotics for infection.

Get well soon.
Take Care
