Many of your symptoms sound like mine and I have IBS and diverticular disease. I do get pain though. If you have had the x-ray and they don't think you need further investigation then I think you are okay. In spite of what some people tell you, fibre is trouble if you have IBS or diverticulitis. Limit your brown bread and avoid skins on fruit and jacket potatoes. Good luck!
