Tooth possibly dying?

[Neos]

Hi,

I had a fairly large filling done on my 2nd bottom right molar just over 6 weeks ago, but still having problems with it.
I get spontaneous pain every now and then that lasts a few seconds or so then goes. Occasionaly it will ache a bit longer, maybe for a few minutes, the spontaneous makes me think its my nerve dying.
It reacts quite sharply to cold but it doesn't linger more than a few seconds after stimulus is removed, there's no reaction or pain at all to hot.
It's never woken me up at night with pain.
For the first month I had pain when chewing on the tooth, but that resolved itself a few weeks ago and can chew on it fine now.

Does sound like irreversible pulpitis? Or maybe just lingering post op sensitivity?
Thanks

Honesty, it could be either I'm afraid the only way to find out is to wait and see at this stage. Teeth can be maddening at times!
