Pain: The right upper quadrant pain would suggest a gallbladder problem . That could be related to diarrhea too. The 3 weeks or so of diarrhea is too much. You should get checked.

Ruq : Full history and physical needed. You need an ultrasound to evaluate for gallstones and blood work, stool cultures. Based on physical exam findings you may need chest x ray or ekg as well but the pain may be referred. Diarrhea is greater than 3 loose bowel movements in one day. Chronic diarrhea requires stool culture ova parasites check and GI consultation. Good luck
