Question

I recently had an ultrasound without any particular reason and it showed I have a gallstone that's 16mm. The thing is, I'm not having any pain or issues right now. Should I be thinking about removing my gallbladder? I'm just not sure what the best course of action is.

Swallowing isn't an issue, but I wanted to know if what I'm experiencing is normal. Can you help me understand this?

I've just gotten my liver function test results and everything seems normal except for my globulin levels, which are reported at 2.7 gdL. I'm a bit worried and curious about why this might be happening. Could you help me understand what this means? I've attached the report for reference.
