I have an 11.1 mm stone in my gallbladder and really don't want surgery since I have a small baby to care for. Are there any natural ways to remove it or manage it without going under the knife?

I'm looking at my lab results, and I'm a bit concerned. My total bilirubin is at 1.69 with indirect at 1.36 and direct at 0.33, and my SGPT is 57. Should I be worried about these numbers? Do you think it's necessary for me to consult a doctor? Any advice would be really helpful!

my dad has 11mm gallstones and one stuck in his bile duct the doctor suggested ERCP for the bile duct stone and surgery for the gallbladder stones are there other options besides surgery we're worried and want to explore alternatives

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
