    There is this machine they sell, you lay on your back and prop your legs up, and it decompresses your back, it kinda looks like a small stool cut in half. It does a circular motion with your legs propped up. Supposed to work really well for decompression, they have belts too, also lifts up your spine to decompress that pressure. Or you can just strap a belt on the bottom of the bunk and inch your upper body up away

    Hey JJ. I feel ya man. I got 8 crushed discs. Sciatica, spinal stenosis, facets disease etc etc. If I may make a suggestion. Go find a GOOD neurosurgeon and get an MRI. There may be more going on. I’ve been battling all this since 2011. Feel better buddy!!

    get yourself an inverter machine, i had a herniated disc and had surgery to fix it. sciatica hurts. try the inverter machine hangs you upside down and lets the disc decompress. it’s amazing how good it helps.

    I feel your pain about editing, I have three videos that I've filmed but just can't find the motivation to edit them. Sorry to hear about your back, lower back injuries are the worst. I sprained a facet joint on a lumbar vertebrae a few years ago and it was the most painful thing. Took months to get sorted out. My dad also had nerve issues in his lower back, he had to eventually get surgery to get it fixed. Hope you get it figured out soon!

    I'm sorry that you're hurting, I had a lumbar fusion a few years ago, I feel your pain. Are you still leading with Landstar? If so, I am wanting to know how the money is? Like how much is the average amount per mile? My co-driver and I are looking to buy a truck. Do you know if they work with teams? I hope you're feeling better.

      Hey, sorry for the late response. I'm feeling better and hopefully will be coming back soon er rather than later.
      Landstar has been good for me regarding money and opportunities. Of course it's slow right now, as with anywhere, but there are still plenty of loads because the Landstar agents also get loads from the public load boards. More options. And yes, they absolutely love team drivers and have loads that are specifically meant for team drivers. It's easy to filter the load board to show just those loads. Hope that helps.
