Please help

Dear Doctor, I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, so I'll try here.
I'm having pain under my right breast around the ribs and middle back. It started about a week ago, and has progressively gotten worse. Today it has started to burn a little, and is spreading to the left under the breast. It hurts intermittently to sit, and to lay down.( Laying on right side is worse.)
I have no nausea, or fever. About a month ago I had a bout of heartburn.
Please help, thank you.

Yup, I went to the ER and they said it was gallstones. Bummer!

I'd go to your primary care doctor, or even the er if it gets that bad.
