What Causes Severe Pain In Pelvis?

I am a 51 white female. I currently had C4-C7 fused do to degeneration and herniated dics pushing. I have experienced a lot of pain from this procedure. It has been decided after trying multiple medication i would have a permanent pain stimulator put in my back. Now I am having a lot of grow pain that causes my legs to gets very bad cramps. I no longer have a menstrual cycle. I feel like I am having a baby in my pelvic area. I often have to use a cane to assist me is walking. It wakes me up a night and takes awhile to go away. I was taking Nucynta, but it caused me to have weird affects. I did have an MRI of the bone structure and I was fine. Today, I had a MRI with contract to look at the muscles and tissues. Any clues of what this might be.
