upper back pain on right side

I started having back pain this morning on the upper right side of my back. I had diverticulitis about a 1 1/2 ago and since, no signs of any problems with that. I also had a pulmonary embolism 2 years ago. So far no sign for that either. This pain typically if felt when I move from side to side or if I take a deep breath. Can someone please give the best advise for me. Thanks

Hi,
The possibilities are
1. Gallbladder issues ( the pain radiates towards the right upper back)
2. Kidney stones
3. Right lung & pleural issues
4. Musculoskeletal pain.
