May I ask what is your dose of the Nexium ? The literature always advises one to call their doctor if their symptoms do not improve or if they get worse while you are taking this medicine. I think due to your post, "to be in pain all the time." warrants a call to your Dr.
IMHO if you need a endoscopy and you are in pain all the time your Dr. should consider scheduling this test sooner.
Take care,
