Gallstones

Can someone help? A year ago i was diagnosed with gallstones but i ended up not having any problems until a week ago, every night i have a gallbladder attack and it’s horrible. Sounds silly but i react bad to pain meds besides tylonal or ibuprofen, so i’m terrified of going to the ER. My dr said surgery would be a last resort option because of how badly i react to these things, is there anything i can do to make my flair up go away again? 😞 anything you guys did besides have it removed?
