Pelvic pain: At your age, you should pursue this, probably with a second opinion. It isn't clear exactly where you have pain. I would discourage chronic use of "pain killers" as the only solution, particularly since your doctor seems to have dismissed your complaint. A lifetime of pain medication is not an acceptable alternative to further evaluation. You are expeiencing pain for a reason;. Be persistent.
