Hi gabe,
I spent 10 months trying to find a doctor who finally knew what was wrong with me. Because my pain also was accompanied by waking up almost every hour to pee at nite, I was sent to a urologist. He never mentioned IBS, and told me it was stress.. His quote "some women cry with their bladder.." Pleeezzze! Find another doctor, and meanwhile try the IBS diet. In one week of eating the safe soluable fiber foods and following Heather's advice, my pain stopped and I was able to get off most of the medication (almost there..) and I'm slowly sleeping more at nite. Don't give up .. and maybe if your current Dr is male try finding a female doctor. Not meaning to be sexist but she was the one who explained everything to me and pointed me to IBS as a possible cause.
