Unbearable stomach pain?

I was sleeved in Jan 2014. Since then, and as recently as a couple of nights ago, I sometimes have stomach pain that lands me in the hospital (3 times now!).
Do any of you, or anyone you know, experience extreme pain of no known origin?
Sometime the pain is relatively short, goes away on it's own. However, there are times where it will last hours and is so painful (10/10 pain scale) that I end-up in the ER...Morphine doesn't touch the pain, and they eventually give me Dalauded (I don't know how to spell that!). This is what happened on Friday night. They did blood work; normal. They did a CT scan; normal (except left side of my colon was full of air).
All tests done in this last year to figure out what is causing me pain have been inconclusive. The only tests/procedures that haven't been done is an MRI, or a laproscopic diagnostic surgical procedure.
I am at a loss...I have basically told this is something I will just have to live with because they just don't know what is causing me this pain. Oh, I was told that I am welcome to a second opinion (this suggestion pissed me off!).
So...Again...I ask you - Is this something that has happened to any of you, or anyone you know?
