Dear Kim,
There are many possible causes for abdominal pain.  Reading your posting it is evident that the docs did a complete evaluation.  One of the diagnoses that can be difficult to make is pancreatic-induced pain.  A normal CT scan does not alwys exclude pancreatic disease.  The best approach is to have a physician restart the evaluation after obtaining a detailed history and physicial examination.
This information is presented for edcuational purposes.  Ask specidfic questions to your personal doctor.
