Hi'
Welcome to HCM
Once it is proved that your mother has gall stones ,it is best to consult surgeon and get a check up and follow advice.
usual accepted method of treatment is removal of stone with gall bladder .laparoscopic cholecystectomy being the gold standard today .
please discuss with your doctor and take appropriate treatment .
gall stones usually cause indigestion specially after fatty meal . avoiding satty meal and digestives may only help symptom wise . stones are known to gause severe pain and needs analgesics specially injections .
the stone prevent the free passage of bile after gall bladder contraction after food and cause pain .
