carolyn,
Yes, it feels like I'm in hard labor. You have the exact symptoms that I have. I've undergone a colonoscopy, barium with a balloon, and 2 gyn doctors, and none of them know what to do. When they did the laporoscopy, the pictures show a small black spot, but they aren't sure what it is. I am at a point of not knowing what to do!  How about you?
Terry
