YES: I strongly agree that removing one's gallbladder should be the last resort rather than initial treatment.I've had many patients have great success with natural therapies to dissolve gallstones & flush them out of the liver/gallbladder. Acupuncture & chinese herbs can help too.See http://www.Townsendletter.Com/july2011/momiracles0711.Html &the amazing liver and gallbladder flush by andreas moritz.

No: Gallstones can be observed if there is no discomfort or problems. Gallstones that cause pain or nausea usually are best treated with surgery to resolve the problem. Actgall is a medication that may dissolve some gallstones, but can take 2-3 years, does not work on large or calcified stones & gallstones can return if medication is stopped.
