Hello

Thanks for asking query on HCM. If you have symptomatic gall stones, as your doctor has diagnosed and had suggested cholecystectomy - gall bladder removal, best possible treatment is the surgery only. There are no tablets or other medicines which can cure these stones.

Even if you require surgery, it is not a very major surgery which is usally done laparoscopically (key hole surgery). In the experienced hands this surgery is simple and risk free. You need not get worried.

Take care.
