There is many things you can do, Virginia. Using Dragon dictating, footmouse if you are able to sit, and use saying a keyboard on the screen. Several alternatives!

I have the tennis elbow according to my doc. But, I wear a wrist brace due to the thumb and wrist area having pain too.

My hubby had carpel tunnel syndrome surgery on his right hand. And a cortisone shot on the left. Both seems to have helped him. And the job change seems to be even better. He was a baker, I will never know how he continued working with the pain he had. he couldn't even unroll his balled up socks at night without horrific pain.

I think I have tendinosis, just like my oldest son. Except he has more in his elbows, while mine is my wrist and three fingers -- not my thumb. I'm pretty sure I don't have a carpal tunnel. What helps me is to not touch my computer mouse or keyboard. And it is possible not to do that while using Dragon. But I sometimes need to rest my voice!

Mosken, this is what I suffered from for years. I used to work in a warehouse/office and used a tape gun to seal boxes. I used one for 11 years and I had tennis elbow and carpal tunnel syndrome in my right hand, both types of RSI.

I tried witch hazel, which cooled the hot areas: then I tried special straps for the hand and physio: then acupuncture. No good.

Then my doctor sent me to see a consultant who said I should have a carpal tunnel release operation as soon as...

I am suffering from this myself. That is why I'm using Dragon dictating program.
