Hello
Now diagnosis is established , so you can concentrate solely on this point.
Gall stone is usually multiple but in your case it is one 8 mm size , very small .
I want to tell you that gall
bladder stone is very common , exact reason is not known.
Now a days for dissolution of cholesterol-rich-
gallstone is used "
URSODEOXYCHOLIC ACID " orally .
Dosage :6-12 mg daily as a single dose at bed time or in the 2-3 divided doses contined for 3-4 months after radiological disappearance of stones.
Doses may be divided unequally w/a higher dose given before bed time to counteract increase in biliary cholesterol situation which occurs in early morning .
Maximum doses 15 mg /kg.
This is a commonly used drugs for
gallbladder stone , so you can try .
Mild side effects are there but benefits are more , so you can use .
Nausea ,
diarrhea , pruritus , gall stone precipitation are common side effects.
Hope this will help you.
Other option is surgical removal of gallbladder .
But in my opinion take this treatment regularly and also get in
ultrasound after every one month to observe the size of gall stone , even size increases after 3 months treatment then get a surgery.
Hope this will help you.
