Find an MD who will: Severe back pain might be related to problems that won't show up on blood work. Make another appointment with your PCP or ask him for a referral to a back specialist. If you are getting no answers, but have a legitamate problem, you should seek another opinion.

Get a new PCP: You need a complete physical exam and history. Possibly a MRI of the abdomine. See an interested physician
