A member asked:
3 mo. dull ruq pain, slightly ^ bilirubin, minimal sludge. drs suspects biliary colic and am scheduled for gb surgery soon. also just found h pylori + and chronic active gastritis. should i still have surgery before treating the h pylori/gastritis?

Good question. It probably depends on how urgent your doctor considers the GB surgery to be. If not urgent, probably best to treat the H. pylori first. Ask the doctor!
