A member asked:

Repeat studies: in 6-12 months, also look for pelvic causes as referred pain to the upper abdomen, such as ovarian and uterine radiating pain so see a GYN for help. Sometimes muscle and ribs can cause such recurrent pain. Pancreatic pain usually is sharp and crescendos, associated with other GI symptoms such as nausea and anorexia. Also intestinal causes are hard to see on CT/ ultrasound and need endoscopy.
