It is as if the TN has a mind of it's own, constantly hiding and tricking me. I sometimes want to scream until I can't stop but the neighbors would freak. The only time I have relief is at night when I sleep and when I wake up ion the morning. That's about it. If I could have two days straight without any discomfort I would be happy.

That's the nature of the Beast we have to live with. If you cannot work out what is triggering attacks around the same time every day (with exception) how about pushing your meds back by an hour for a week. Change up anything else you can think may be contributing to the attacks, eating, teeth cleaning, etc…
Don't let it overwhelm your mind, do you have anything that helps you maintain a calm state?

Dave.

In other words change the schedule to 7am 1pm and 7pm to see if that works better? I will try that. Flossing starts the flare up sometime I brush and nothing happens and then it starts. I will try that. Thank you.
