I can’t be the only one who’s had a herniated disc requiring a microdiscectomy. I still have pain but not like it was. Looking for suggestions for a sleeping pad. I’m not concerned about weight to an extent. As In I’m not packing in a 4” thick memory foam mattress topper like I do on my surf fishing trips when I use my tent cot. Comfy but not possible for backpacking.
I know it’ll require me testing out multiple pads, that’s no problem. I’m just looking for starting points from any of you guys/gals that have lower back pain that work for you. I need to ask my dad what he used when he hiked thru hiked the AT.
Sleep comfy
Wake up without my back completely cussing
Durable
Warm
Thanks, hope your back feels good today! Mine hurts from sleeping on a hotel mattress that I’m fairly sure was a mattress composed of thousands of wadded up plastic grocery bags.
