Has anyone been diagnosed with Abdominal Wall Pain?

Hello,
I responded to a post somewhere here..don't see it... I have been suffering from suspected ACNES due laparoscopy in 2016. Clev Clinic Dr only person in South Florida who seems knowledgeable of it but can't help further.
I had a Spinal Cord Stimulator inplant 6 months ago after developing severe back pain , within 4 weeks my Nerve pain was excruciatingly to point I became bedridden mostly. I switched it off.
Drs still refuse to accept it exacerbated my pain but I'm just post a Nerve Conduction Study ( shot up with strong electrical current) most horrendous pain of my life. Took numerous days to recover. Preparing my records for Dr Gillespie. This condition is truly destroying my body. Am almost 6 months on a soft/ liquid diet/ can't tolerate normal diet due severity of digestive pain.
It would be nice if "posters " report back if they get help and what worked. I for one would be very interested to know if and how people get resolution.
This is a devastating condition.

@anniesezu812 I'm going through the same thing have been for 4 years I'm now at the point that I'm trying a spinal cord stimulator because if that doesn't work there is no other plan. Pain is so debilitating it just really destroys your life

I've been reading through posts on ACNE's and Adhesions, and noticed your post. I think I have Adhesions and maybe ACNE's from a gall bladder laparoscopic surgery in June of 2023. The possibility of adhesions post surgery wasn't discussed at all. I started having pain about four or five months post surgery. I've had imaging done: endoscopy, colonoscopy, CT and ultrasound; all of them don't show anything internal in the GI tract that would be causing the pain/discomfort. I've seen two gastroenterologists and neither can explain what is going on, other than if I have adhesions they won't show on imaging and only found with exploratory surgery. They wouldn't do that unless there is an obstruction happening, and right now there isn't. they both suggested either amythryptaline or northriptaline (not sure if I spelled them correctly), but the possible side effects don't sound good. Are you taking anything for pain? If anyone else that reads this has any experience with dealing with the abdominal wall pain, please respond.
