My PN is there all the time. It doesn't flare. I have times during day when pain is better or worse. Usually it is less at night when I am sleeping. In fact, it seems to go away completely. I get a brief respite in the morning after waking usually about an hour. I am on 1600 mg of gabapentin dailyy

Pain gets worse as the day wears on. About 4 p.m. onward I really feel it.
