What Causes Sharp Burning Pain In Left Side Of Abdomen?

I have been having burning to sharp pain in the upper left side of abdomen. I have had CT of abd. by oral contrast, abd. U/S. XRAY, colonoscopy and EDG which was all normal but this pain has been present for 2 years. I had a robotic hysterectomy about 1-2 years prior to this issue. What could be causing this pain? It is not getting better. It is present most of the time.
