I'm really worried because I've been dealing with this acid reflux ever since I quit smoking about a month ago. Its become quite uncomfortable, and sometimes I even have trouble breathing, which gets worse when I try to exercise. Im not sure if there's any medication I could take to ease these symptoms, or if it's important that I visit a hospital right now. Any advice would be really appreciated.

I recently had an ultrasound without any particular reason and it showed I have a gallstone that's 16mm. The thing is, I'm not having any pain or issues right now. Should I be thinking about removing my gallbladder? I'm just not sure what the best course of action is.
