You're right, it doesn't really need to build up. Keep in mind that you can simply have good weeks where the pain and symptoms are not as profound. Every day is NOT the same for PN.

Overall, I am sleeping better. The last few days I only got two hours of sleep, but the last few weeks I've been 4 hours of straight sleep ( if I am lucky 5) then an hour or two of broken sleep. That's a huge improvement for me

Glad to hear things are at least a little better for you. Hopefully you can continue down that path........

Ok thanks. I know people say they have better days or weeks but in a year I haven't had any. Everyday has been the my "same" or worse. I hope my tiny bit better days continue!
