No, he is not suffering from any pain. He belches a lot these days apart from that no other complaints
So sorry your spouse is going thru this. I agree with almostsixty that you should get a 2nd opinion as well. There are many stages of liver disease and if I'm understanding your post grade 2 is reversible with diet and exercise.
Gall Bladder surgery on the other hand can be a major surgery and should not be undertaken unless its necessary. You may be able to find a Dr that can treat this condition with a strict diet reducing fatty foods.
They do have less invasive techniques for the gall bladder besides surgery.
I would be sure to investigate these other options before moving forward.
Please let us know what has happened thus far
Best to you

I am 60 and have cirrhosis, fatty liver, and several gall stones. I successfully treated hep c. You don't say if your husband is suffering with any symptoms from gall stones. My doctor is not doing anything with my gall bladder unless the stones begin to cause me pain. You should get a second opinion and husband should be careful to not eat fatty foods. I am sure you will hear from other members.
