    Well, I remember when I was a kid and Mom's gaul bladder was removed. They sent the stones home with her. They were like like stones and I remember thinking that we could put them in the driveway.

    As a rule of thumb, the longer you go without experiencing any symptoms, the less likely it is that your condition will worsen.

    The treatment plan for uncomplicated gallbladder stones depends on the frequency and severity of the symptoms, and the effect they have on your quality of life.

    If your symptoms are mild and infrequent, and your quality of life is largely unaffected, surgery is not usually recommended. You may be prescribed painkillers, which you can use to control the symptoms if you experience another episode of biliary colic.

    Globe artichoke has been studied for its choleretic effects in animal and in vitro studies. It has been shown to stimulate the secretion of bile from the gallbladder. However, it should be used cautiously if a patient has biliary/bile duct obstruction. Adverse effects are mild and usually include gastrointestinal symptoms.
