Depends: Only if you have having symptoms from your gallbladder, such as abdominal pain or colic. You should definitely discuss it with your doctor.

Depends: Symptoms and your physical exam with your doc will determine your answer. Stones in gallbladder, dont necessarily determine a treatment plan. If you have fever, vomiting, worsening pain get evaluated right away.
