Hi.
Such type of pain can be due to Meckel's diverticulitis. This is the area of maximum pain , shifting sometimes as you have noted. This is not easily diagnosed by the routine tests.
Enteroclysis can help to delineate the defect as an out-pouching.
Another best way is to get a Diagnostic Laparoscopy done and to get the surgery done for whatever is surgically corrected.
Ultrasonography and CT scan can miss this. It looks you have already got these done as you say the other causes are ruled out.
