There won't be any surgery. The surgeon said that a CT would show half the
population has gall stones with no problems. He prefers NOT to operate
unless there are more positive symptoms, like pain, etc. With everything
else on my plate right now, I agree with him.

Sounds like a very good surgeon! Unless you are exhibiting symptoms and
if the gall bladder seems healthy except for the stones, there is no
reason to take it out in my opinion.

Good news on no surgery for now! Do they know if this is what's been causing
the bloating or are there other possibilitiees?
