A member asked:
Had abdominal ultrasound 5 months ago and no signs of gallstones. can a gallstone appear and grow as to cause pain within 5-6 months? my doctor says no in such a short time?

Since no one has followed GB stone from start to visible so it cant be accrately predicted . In general it takes years to form one.
