Pain in the right hand side is quite common in IBS suffers. I have it. It is the one thing I have never been able to control by diet. However, recently I have been taking a probiotic and the pain nearly completely disappeared. I will make a posting about it soon.

I had an appendicitis attack several years ago and had to have emergency surgery to have it taken out. Believe me, you would know if it was appendix pain. It hurts really, really bad and gets progressively worse without letting up. Since yours has been off and on I don't think that's what it is.
I think you probably have trapped gas which I get quite often and can be painful on the right side.
Good luck Barbie

I've had pain in right side from gallbladder attacks. If it is GB it will get very painful. It may also be in your right upper back almost to the shoulder or in the middle of your chest. I've thought I was having a heart attack. Hope it's gas.

I often get very sharp pain in lower right quadrant when I am ovulating. Especially if I roll over quickly in bed. (Odd, eh?)
