I still have night pain at 6 months since TNR. I get very little sleep.
Oddly I did have one month of no night pain. Days are always fine. It is
certainly affecting my life. I need to see my dr. and get a prescription for pain. But worried how long this will go on.

Therenare two main kinds of pain after surgery - physical/anatomical pain that means something is structurally wrong in the knee, and nerve pain, which occurs when the nerves disturbed by surgery need to heal and regenerate.
Can you tell us a little more about your pain? All day, only at night, pinching, stabbing, tingling?
When was the last time you talked to your surgeon about it
