gabbykittyvsg 184 Posted September 22, 2014 A charlie horse is a sudden and intense muscle spasm. I had similar pain a few times and it was my gall bladder. The pain subsiding may have had nothing to do with the pain killers but with the the gall bladder chilling out. The time frame of your pain and the sudden onset was exactly how my last episode of gall bladder pain happened. I went to the er and 2 weeks later had surgery.
