Finally have some answers
This has been ongoing since pretty much a month post op the pain went away for a couple months after I had an adhesion removal and all was good till the end of December when I ended up in the hospital again for the same pain
This morning I had a colonoscopy and they found small ulcers all over in my small and large intestine the doctor took lots of biopsies and I go back to see him in six to eight weeks
Now to go back to my nurse practitioner and the doctor she works under and have them apologize to me for calling me a junkie and saying the pain was all in my head since nothing was showing up on any of the imaging
I have had 5 ct scans an MRI countless ultrasounds and nothing showed up even had two upper scopes before the one toay

Good that you have a cause now and can treat it accordingly. It was the same when I had gallbladder stones/disease - they sent me to half a dozen specialists and tests, drugs, when the whole time it was my gallbladder. This went on for years and for the last year I was vomiting nearly every single day. In the end they told me it was stress and I just needed to relax. Ya right!! Only reason I was finally diagnosed was because I had a severe gallbladder attack and ended up in hospital for emergency treatment as my gallbladder almost burst. Still I had to wait 5 months for surgery - 5 months! In the meantime I had 3 more attacks and passed a huge stone, in the hospital every single time. After surgery I felt instantly fine eating normal food, it was fantastic! I hope your issue is dealt with quickly now that they know what is wrong. And you should let them know it wasn't in your head!
