Abdominal Pain question

Hi. I'm new here and just thought I would ask if there is anyone out there who has had a similar experience as me.
I have had constant pain (like a gnawing and pressure pushing from the inside out) in the upper right quadrant of my abdomen for 5 months.
The pain is constant, it does not move to other areas and never goes away. It gets worse when I eat - anything.
I do not have diarhhea or constipation (I don't think).
I have had a battery of tests (CAT, Upper GI, HIDA scan, endoscopy (twice) and every blood test you can imagine) and no one can figure out what is wrong w/ me. I am on elavil, which is not working for the pain.
Now my GI wants to put me on Zelnorm to see if I respond.
I know that this is a drug for IBS.
Is it possible to have IBS and only have abdominal pain as a symptom?
Has anyone had a similar experience?
Thanks...

I am sorry you are experiencing so much difficulty. You may want to post this question on the Eating for IBS board. You will get alot more help over there.

Hope that helps!
