The pain is intolerable and it effects to my mental status in thinking and socializing. The pain is now transferring to Rt. Lower limbs I feel trouble in walking. Where to go ??? this is a big question for me because the physicians has all the time given me painkillers and it gives me instant relief. Even after living the painkiller the pain is same in their magnitude.

Welcome to health care magic.
1.The history and symptoms suggest the possible cause for the pain could be from the spine due to degenerative disc disease and nerve / spinal chord compression giving radiating pain to leg.
2.Since you already had the ultrasound and CT which has ruled out all the solid organ pathologies and bowel pathologies.
3.In this case i would recumbent to get an MRI scan of spine done - that will help to delineate the disc / nerve / spinal chord.
4.The treatment in this case will be exercise and physiotherapy will be initially tried.
5.Depending on the MRI findings and severity of symptoms - operative / interventional treatment is indicated.
Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
