Chronic sacral and butt pain

Hi Guys! 
I’ve had my J-pouch for 2 years. Since my first surgery, I’ve suffered from sacral/buttock pain. It’s dull and achy and gets worse through the day, I sleep on a heating pad at night to help me fall asleep. Some nights it’s considerably troublesome and hard to fall asleep. Most mornings it seems to be unnoticeable and slowly through the evenings increases. I have since surgery been diagnosed with an anal fissure, and an anal fistula which I’ve had surgery on. As well as Crohns and am now currently on Humira. Just wondered if anyone suffers from this? 

Also, I’ve had MRIs and CTs both showing nothing abnormal. My GI thought it could be nerve related from surgery and prescribed Gabapentin, which seems to have no effect.
