Given I had semi emergency gallbladder removal surgery in 2020, I suppose this does not help me.

Same here. Had my gallbladder removed in 2014. The Dr. showed me a picture of my gallstones and it looked like a gravel pit. There had to be at least 15-20 in there. I thought I read somewhere that people that are on statins have a higher risk of developing gallstones and I was on statins for quite a few years. I had discontinued the statins a year or so before this surgery because I had naturally got my cholesterol level down to around 170ish.
