It is safe but: It is safe but you should ask the questions to the surgeon of all the risks associated with gall bladder surgery as well as what method he/she is using.Is it laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Safe: You at least have biliary dyskinesia based on hida results. If your symptoms are due to that you have an indication for cholecystectomy. This can be done safely with your other associated conditions. The risk of significant liver injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is very low.
