Don't worry sir. Gallbladder polyps do not cause any problems in majority of cases. So there is no compulsion to get them operated. If you still are anxious then the surgery done for it is called laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It is a key hole surgery or a minimal access surgery. Recovery after surgery is very fast. Think about it sir.

No, it's unlikely. It can vary from lab to lab n from sonologist to sonologist there is no way to expel gall bladder stones (unlike case of kidney stones). So gall stones if they r not creating problem, let them be there. But do follow annual checkups. But if they r causing problem, its better to remove them.

Yeah it can b permanent or it can be temporary unilateral hearing loss. But for proper diagnosis you have to do your hearing test.

1. You have eustachian tube dysfunction .(any history of hearing loss, ringing sensation, loss of balance/vertigo=could be acoustic neuroma) 2. Did you used to have recurrent cold/history of allergic rhinitis? Any h/o recent air travel?
3.anyways, I would recommend you to get ear looked at through otoscope to rule out any fluid build up in middle ear.
