10yr old girl with swollen lymph nodes in abdomen and pain for 6 weeks

My 10yr old daughter has been in pain everyday for 6 weeks. She has swollen lymph nodes in her abdomen and has constant abdominal pain. The pain is worse at night and in the mornings. The pain is mainly in her lower abdomen but sometimes radiates up the sides of her abdomen. She also has pain in her back and sometimes her hips and legs. She is more tired than usual and has been taking naps. She still eats but not as much at each meal. She looks pale a lot and sometimes has a rash on her face, chest and upper back. She has had numerous urine, blood tests and stool samples done. Dr's say all are normal. They have tried her in manydifferent medicines for her gut but none have helped with the pain. Zofran does help with her nausea tho. She's nauseous everyday. She has an endoscopy and colonoscopy scheduled for about a wk and a half away at a children's hospital. The g.i. there said maybe chrons or colitis but since she has no blood in her stool that lessens the chance of those being the culprit. I'm going crazy watching my daughter in pain everyday and feeling so helpless especially since the Dr's haven't figured it out. Has anyone been through anything similar?? If you have any advice please reply! I just need to know what we could be dealing with??!!
