Brief Answer:
Consider cholecystectomy

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Gallbladder pain and a small stone of 8 mm makes it cholecystitis. I would strongly recommend surgery as these small stones could slip into common bile duct and make it worse. Kindly consult your doctor and let them take the gallbladder out via minimal invasive approach.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
