My wife's recent USG showed a gallstone the biggest one is 6.7mm. She doesn't have any pain, but she's lost a lot of weight, down to 56 kg over the last 6 months. Does she need surgery, or will medicine be enough? Also, could the stone be causing her weight loss, and how can she regain the weight she's lost?

A 6.7 mm gallstone without pain rarely needs surgery; weight loss is unlikely from the stone‚Äîfocus on nutrition and rule out other causes.
