Sudden stabbing pain in Chest, help!

Hi All

I need advise!

My surgery was on the 8th of September - 1.5 week ago.

I even had my checkup with the hospital nurse yesterday and all seems to be perfect, great healing, good weight loss, no pain.

Last night when I went to bed out of nowhere it seems I felt a sudden sharp stabbing pain in my right chest every time I try to pull in a breath.

I tried to kind of sit more upright in my bed because the pain breathing was not as bed and I managed to fall a sleep.

But it is only 1:50 am and I just woke up 20 min ago because of this pain .

Anybody any idea what this could be.

Otherwise I do not feel sick nor do I am dizzy or have a temperature or any other pain .

PLEASE help if any of you has an idea or experienced the same.

Thanks

A charlie horse is a sudden and intense muscle spasm.

I had similar pain a few times and it was my gall bladder. The pain subsiding may have had nothing to do with the pain killers but with the the gall bladder chilling out. The time frame of your pain and the sudden onset was exactly how my last episode of gall bladder pain happened. I went to the er and 2 weeks later had surgery.
