I might experience the pain either later that same day or up to 72 hours after the stimulus. Keeping a journal has been very useful to track this.

Guess I am not the only one. Sorry you're in the same boat as I am.
My only option has been not to exercise at all. The more I rest, the better I feel. The more I rest, the better I sleep at night.
But according to my doctors, I MUST exercise. They just don't realize how painful it is.
Is there a chance that something else could be causing this rather than the SFN? I've seen a neurologist and a rheumatologist. They both say there are a lot of tests are "off", but nothing really stands out as extreme. That's all the farther it goes.
Thanks,
