Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
The pain could signify persistence of infection, re-infection, presence of pelvic adhesions (damages done due to infection), other structural problems, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, etc. It is difficult to comment on the exact cause without examining you. Consider visiting your gynecologist at the earliest for further evaluation and assistance. Treatment as appropriate (based on examination findings and investigation results) would be started to help you. Be in regular monitoring and follow-up with your treating doctor/gynecologist and report any unusual/abnormal/new symptoms immediately.
Take care.

Thanks for the response. What is a CBC used for? i have taken a CBC test and HIv test as well. Hiv negative and CBC results were fine from what the lab technician told me. Isnt it possible that if i had an infection they would notice it through the CBC test?
