Pancreatic: Inflammation is not normal and be aware that alcohol and certain meds can trigger it. If the tests for pancreatitis are normal, ask your dr the cause of your abdominal pain. It could be from gastritis, colitis, ibs etc. Hope u feel better soon! http://www.M.Webmd.Com/pain-management/guide/abdominal-pain-causes-treatments.

Not normal: Pancreatic inflammation is never normal. If your labs have been normal, specifically lipase, you have no biochemical evidence of pancreatitis. Abdominal pain is very nonspecific so that may not indicate pancreatitis either. See what the MRI shows.
