Brief Answer:
It could be due to Musculoskeletal cause.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Gall bladder is an intra abdominal organ. Pain will be felt below the ribcage on right side inside the abdomen in gallbladder problems .
As you are experiencing spasms in the muscle above Gallbladder, it could not be related to it.It could be due to Musculoskeletal cause. I prescribe skeletal muscle relaxant tablet containing Thiocolchicoside to my patients with similar complaints.
If there is no response, I will go for Ultrasound abdomen.
Blood sugar levels are related to Pancreas. Pain in right side of abdomen has no relation to Blood sugar levels.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
