Referred pain is when pain is felt in an area distant from the source of the pain. In this case, the gallbladder (source of pain) causes pain in the right shoulder blade (distant area). The receptive field is related to sensory neurons' detection areas. Phantom limb pain occurs after limb amputation. Chronic pain is long - lasting pain (not relevant here as it's an attack).
