EXCRUTIATING PAIN

This is the second time I've had this pain in two months. It starts with a slight pain on my right side just under my rib........then moves to centre between ribs. My second bought this past weekend was very frighteneing as i could hardly breathe. The pain is so intense I could liken it to labour pains. There is no let up. I vomited (on both occassions) which gave me intermittent pain relief. The pain was instanly back but not as severe. I can't sit, liedown, I must walk at a rapid pace to help control pain, bending over on occassion helped I would say the pain lasted for one to two hours. I did have some sweating happen. The pain didn't move accross my body it was consistant in one area. Nothing on my back. I did belch a bit but I'm able to do that easily on most occassions. I cannot think of anything that could have caused it. Two nights before I had french fries - a rarity. The night of this second attack I didn't really eat a meal in the PM.........I snacked ...on what I don't really rememeber.
I thought maybe it was wind........then someone mentioned maybe a gall bladder issue.......then when I read something it could be appendicitis........any thoughts? I am going to my Dr. this Friday to get checked out.
