Could all of my symptoms be because of my hiatus hernia?

As detailed on here before I have following symptons;

-Gnawing stomach pain that is constant 24/7 for 3 years now

-Cramps that get intensly worse immediately after eating

-Bloating

-Lower abdominal noises, get worse at night, and feels like my bowel/intestines are dead, don't do anything (no movement)

-pain is worse immediately after eating

-pain is worse after bowel movement

-only 2 bowel movements a week, but they are normal 

After every test on the NHS, they came back with no firm diagnosis, however i was diagnosed with a small Hiatus Hernia 

Slight pancreatis a while ago also

Could all of this be because of my Hiatus Hernia and if so would operating on it fix this?

I'm just fed up, no pain relief or antispasmodic works, nothing works and I'm truely at the point of giving up

Don't want to get surgery on repairing it if it is not going to do anything

I don't get GERD or acid refux, my pain is in same spot but could be a rolling hernia which is in a different part

Please any help or advice

      Just try and not eat dairy. So stressed. Dr prescribed Bentyl. Which helps. A little.

      Did you have a upper scope? Do you have a hernia? All my labs scans bloodwork all came back clear.
