Hi.
Thanks for your query and history.
The pain in abdomen with raised amylase is definitely suspicious of pancreatitis irrespective of normal usg.ct or MRI .
This indicates that these investigations need to be repeated after 48 hours.
This is the condition in which one needs upper GI endoscopy and endousg to get a proper diagnosis.
Other conditions which mimic such a pain are sphincter of oddi dysfunction, bile duct stone and sludge and so on.
Get second opinion of another General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and investigation.
