I had my gall bladder taken out thanksgiving of last year. Mainly it's a sharp kind burning pain right under your sternum between the bottom of your ribs. It hurts to the touch and the pain radiates to your back. Sometimes it makes you neauseated and have a fever. A appendicitis is more lower pain above your right hip and also hurts to the touch. But ultimately you should see your physician they can only really tell you... Hope that helps a bit! Wink

I also had my gallbladder removed last november. I would eat..Say pizza for lunch, then come the middle of the night I would wake up with sharp pain. This pain felt like there was a lot of pressure on my stomach, beneath my ribs. Believe me...You'll know
