I'm a 35-year-old male engineer, and I've recently had my gallbladder removed. I'm still on bed rest and trying to figure out how much more time I might need to fully recover. Can you give me an idea of the usual recovery period for this surgery? I'm concerned about how much longer I might need to stay off work.

Surgeon opinion is advised to the patient.

I have several 57mm stones in my gallbladder can they be removed without surgery or is that my only option

While gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy) is often the preferred treatment for symptomatic gallstones, including those as large as 57mm, there are some non-surgical options available. These include medications to dissolve stones, and in rare cases, shock wave lithotripsy. However, the effectiveness and suitability of these alternatives vary, and surgery may still be necessary, especially for larger or symptomatic stones
