First, your symptoms are gallbladder stones, the second is gastritis or peptic ulcer disease, and the third is renal colic caused by stones (deposits) in the right kidney or ureter. First, an ultrasound of the abdominal cavity should be performed. This is a conclusive study. If it is a gallstone disease, you should undergo surgery. If there are no stones in the follicle in the ultrasound, the order of further diagnosis should be determined after examination by a doctor.
