Gallstones: are not caused by diabetes or elevated blood cholesterol levels, but by imbalance of phospholipids, bile salts, and cholesterol content in bile. If you have gallstones and diabetes, some surgeons recommend cholecystectomy even when you have little or no pain, because diabetes can cause inability to feel the pain. Consult a surgeon for specific recommendation in your case.
