Given the large gallstone (15mm), symptoms, and high blood sugar, a cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) is generally recommended for your mother. While homeopathy and Ayurveda can offer complementary therapies, they are not a replacement for conventional medical treatment.

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'm a bit confused about my test results. The report says "nonreactive" for both testsdoes that mean they're negative? So, does it confirm that both Hepatitis B and C are not present in my case?
A "non-reactive" result typically indicates that both Hepatitis B and C tests are negative
