Gallstone

Does anyone (Pilot especailly) have any experience of surgery to remove gallbladder due to a gallstone? (1 large stone not multiple small stones)
Are there any medical side effects which I can look forward too?
My AME says I can lead a normal life with no medication afterwards but to watch out for too much fatty food and possibly bloating after eating protein.
I'm just considering whether surgery is a necessity or to just continue normally flying with a medical restriction?

Thanks
