my husband has a 2 cm gallbladder stone with multiple calculi and had jaundice but his bilirubin levels are better now can the stones be treated with medicines or does he need surgery

Given the 2 cm gallbladder stone, multiple calculi, and previous jaundice, surgery is likely the best course of action for your husband's gallbladder. While medications can sometimes dissolve cholesterol stones, they are less effective for other types and may not be suitable for large or multiple stones.

I've been experiencing this tightness or squeezing sensation in the upper right side of my chest for over a year now, and it seems to be getting worse. My chest X-ray came out normal, but I also have Gilbert's syndrome, which is adding to my fatigue. I'm really worried about what's going on. Could you help figure out what's causing this?

Ecg and chest x-ray pa view is advised to the patient.

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.

no need to worry as If 2.7 gdL is close to the lower end of the normal range, it might simply be a natural variation.
