In the morning, especially after you have breakfast, your daily amount of cortisol secretion is highest. This is anti-inflammatory, and energizing.

The first dip occurs at about 4pm, and a second peak after supper around 7-8, for most people. The very lowest cortisol is at 4am, and that is when in hospitals, many people die when they are very sick.

My pain is always worst at night. That is the only time I really need help sometimes, so I have tramadol for that when those terrible times come.

Feeling better lying down, suggests something in the spine to me.
