Location, Location..: Gallbladder atttacks tend to cause pain in the right upper- or midline abdomen. Appendicitis usually causes pain in the right lower abdomen. Appendicitis does not "come-and-go", whereas people can have repeated gallbladder attacks. The pain from appendicitis is usually unrelenting, progressively worsening, and makes it difficult to walk or move.

Ask your doc: Ask your doctor. If either of these is giving you problems, you should not be self diagnosing yourself.
