I have been having this terrible pain under my right rib cage, but the attacks only happen at night and i can't breath in, pick up anything, or stand ?

Chest Pain: Sharp chest pain on the right side can be due to a multiplicity of causes. Pleuritic chest pain can present that way, and the positional changes we experience at night might aggravate it. I would definitely consultant with your physician to identify the underlying cause.
