I would look at getting a proper dynamic bike fit. You might know your body and that is good but do you know your body while riding a bike and have you been able to make adjustments while you are riding the bike? The great thing with a fitter is they can observe you while riding (something hard to do solo) and make adjustments on the fly on the fit bike and then transfer those measurements to your actual bike.

Raising and lowering a saddle is great and trying different saddles is fine but if the saddle is in the wrong position (fore/aft, tilt, as well as height) or the other things involved with fit are off that can cause issues but also not getting used to the set up can be tough. In the end generally after a good fit you should be pretty comfortable but sometimes you still need to get used to it.
