What Does Sharp Pain In The Chest On The Right Side Indicate?

Yes, thank you. I m an 88 year old Caucasian male. I have an occasional sharp pain in my chest, extreme right, usually at night and after a large evening meal. It hits just as I go to bed. My wife suggests it to be gall stones and a diet not appropriate for my advanced years. I realize that email diagnoses are not very professional but I would be grateful for your opinion. Thanks you, Martin
