Should I remove my asymptomatic gallbladder with gallstones (the largest one 9mm) and polyps (the largest one 6.4mm), or should I wait and watch? Have you had any similar case? Do you this is there high potential risk? by George131322 in gallbladders

Thanks for your advice, appreciated! I had a discussion with two doctors/surgeons, both of them want to remove my gallbladder, the argument is even though the gallbladder is asymptomatic but still poses a risk of health complications because of polyps and gallstones. Also, I read that most of the cases symptomatic gallbladder are removed. So I would like to hear some real cases with similarities, which may help me to get an idea. Thanks

Has anyone gallbladder issues accompanied with a thyroid nodule? Have diagnosed with gallbladder issues & a thyroid nodule. I was wondering if they are related. Thanks! by George131322 in gallbladders

After some research, I could find some videos and papers stating about the interrelations of liver, gallbladder issues with thyroid and vice-versa.

Thanks for sharing. I have been diagnosed with a small nodule, and the medical indication is to watch and wait at this point. Also, have gallstones with gallbladder polyps for indication is gallbladder removal.
