Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me assure you, it's safe to wait one week, before surgery.
As the stone is in the right sided tube, same side as abdominal pain, the stone is the cause for the pain.
Medical treatment is given for 1-2 weeks, depending on size of stone, and block of kidney. She must drink 12-15 glasses of liquids daily.
A 8mm stone is not very big. Endoscopic treatment is routine in Urology.
If pain is very severe, she can opt for treatment earlier.
Wishing her a speedy recovery.
