acute abdominal pain tests

Lower left abdominal pain that radiates to groin and leg for 10 days. All tests are neg. What could this be?

I went to the ER 5 days ago with acute abdominal pain. I have delt with the pain for 5 days before that. I had a left inguinal hernia repair 15 years ago. The repair site upon a DR exam says no hernia problem. I had a CT scan and blood work that was all negative. The pain is a few inches above the scar from the repair. The pain also radiates into the left side of groin and left leg. The pain also radiates from my left side to my back. It is as painful as a kidney stone at times but all that was ruled out. No bowel movement problems or changes. Starting to urinate is slow sometimes but not painful. I feel less discomfort lying down. Standing and sitting is uncomfortable and painful at times. I was referred to a surgeon and he says nothing needs surgical intervention. I was prescribed anti-inflammatories and the pain has eased some, but still hurts. I have not lifted anything heavy or done anything to cause an injury of any sort. This is odd? Did anyone have a similar ocurrance?

Have they checked the sciatic nerve? or possibly narrow arteries (partial blockage) ? I had a leg angiogram that showed complete blockage (large blood clot) in the right common iliac.
My symptoms were severe pain while walking causing me to limp, I had this for years before I went to a cardiologist for other issues and I mentioned it to him and he decided to take a look.
I have plenty of clogged arteries and still have hip and leg pains.

It might be worth while to have a cardiologist check it out, if you don’t get blood flow to the muscles they get tight and cramp up causing pain.

Good Luck
