See details: Without specifics concerning location, type and relationship to food intake, it is difficult to be precise in an answer. You could obtain a 2nd opinion. I assume you have been screened for celiac disease. One possible cause is a vascular problem.

Eating bland?: Does that include sugar and sweeteners? If so try doing without. Another possibility is milk and milk products including cheese. Agree that most likely diagnosis is ibs.

Agree it is likely IBS, for which there are now treatment's available in addition a bland diet. There are also techniques to look in0 the small bowel if it becomes truly necessary called enteroscopy (including a very low invasive procedure called capsule enteroscopy in addition to ones using a scope). Depending on severity of symptoms and hx you may want to ask your GI if this would be helpful.
