Pain after 3 sittings of RCT, not yet completed...

Hi ,
I am also going through the root canal treatment for my lower right second molar. i had 3 sittings with my dentist. I already had temporary filling done in that tooth around 1 year back but had pain after every 3-4 months so i went to dentist, she did check up, X-ray and said to go for root canal.
After first root canal sitting, my pain was much relieved and still it is relieved but sometimes i feel pain, not very severe as earlier in the morning time around 3:00AM till 6:00 AM and after morning brushing, it goes off.
i am having appointments with my doc on every tuesday and saturdays. when i say its paining she just fill cotton inside the tooth cavity and when there is no pain she puts some ceramic temporary filling and cotton below it.
i am just concerned about my pain, when it'll totally go off? i hope that there is no any infection remaining in teh canal. Though my doc ensured me about that, there is no pus formation infact she said nerve tissues are also dead.
can you give some details?

Seeing an endodontist to have a thorough evaluation is advised.
