Lots of things: Your doctor will have to continue to look until your symptoms can be adequately explained. Getting a second opinion can go a long way in making you more confident about the information you receive.

Depends: Does the pain radiate from the back? Are you concerned about the cecum? The cecum is likely visualized on pelvic ct if it is in the normal location.
