Nephrologist 's  Response
Hi, welcome to HCM.
Looking to your father's history, kidney stone was accidentally detected on evaluation for transient unconsciousness and swallowing problem.
8 mm stone in kidney usually does not pass spontaneously.
If it is not obstructing the urine passage, you can follow it up with repeat sonography or CT scan after 3 months.
But your father needs evaluation for unconsciousness with neurologist.
best wishes. tc.
