Asking For Mother, Male 41, Okara
My mother is suffering from gall stones for 7 years I'm really worried about her she is afraid of getting surgery this is causing severe weakness in her body. The fear of losing her is causing depression to me. Please give me some good advice.
please consult a surgeon. she needs surgery to remove gallbladder. it couldn't be treated medically , only in a very few cases medicine is effective, all other cases need surgery.
its a simple surgery. she could get laproscopic surgery, it will reduce hospital stay and less painful with small scars

Your all problems will be addressed properly
thanks

But some post surgery patients say that they became even more uncomfortable after removal of gall bladder.

there could be other causes and concerns for those patients. every patient has his or her own treatment requirements which could be addressed specifically by the surgeon.

But the thing is that she is so weak and she has to get blood transfusion before surgery but her body is very reactive against foreign blood.

you could use your fstger/mothers online account. you could also ask your mother to visit clinic for further consultation, as her history is not clear from your questions

I'm convincing her but she says its worthless to visit doctor because the only solution is surgery which she does not want to get.

ok then she knows the solution. now you need to convince her for it. because she couldn't improve until she gets rid of these stones.

The fear of complications is the thing that is stopping her to take a step for surgery.

complications develop when patients don't get surgery, or get it late. not with early surgery. she will suffer more if she doesn't get surger
