What is this pain on my right side?

Hello, everyone. I am going back to work tomorrow, and I am in pain :( Last week (during vacation) I woke up with a sharp pain in my right side, just about where the rib cage ends. I chalked it up to sleeping on my belly too long and it faded away. Well, now it's pretty constant. It seems to hurt more when I twist around or bend over. Could it be a muscle thing? I did go on some pretty tight-fitting roller coasters that hung me upside down :) I am afraid that anatomy 101 might indicate a gallbladder problem. Any ideas? P.S. to describe the area better...under my right boob, but further down below to where the ribs end.
