This is probably: due to air trapped under your diaphragm from the laparascope. Should resolve soon. If getting worse or associated fever call your surgeon immediately

Gallbladder bed pain: If pain is new at this stage then notify your surgeon immediately,it is indicative of inflammation at the former gallbladder site,might be normal if the organ had been acutely inflamed of infected-the surgeon would be best placed to judge this.
