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.

While medication can sometimes dissolve gallstones, especially cholesterol stones, it's not a guaranteed solution and may take months or years. Surgery (cholecystectomy) to remove the gallbladder is often the preferred treatment for symptomatic gallstones, and it's generally more effective than medication. Whether or not the stone will cause problems later depends on whether it causes symptoms, and if so, what kind of symptoms.
