Grey hair is the awesome, embrace it Liz, embrace it.

Squeezy balls help too. and definitely void surgery; I did it in my right wrist, and now I have almost no flexibility.

obviously the solution is to change the repeated pattern that created it to begin with.. i can write you an RX for no more texting.. !
Mon. 12/8/08 2:42pm

perhaps someone would donate the squeezy balls to help your cause..........work the hands girl! no doctor needed for that

Also, try to start learning how to do everything with keystrokes; I almost never use my mouse. You can usually write your own keystroke macros to do almost anything you want, and you can change keystrokes that are uncomfortable (e.g., command-a is the worst, so I changed it to something more comfortable).

Liz, caught a little of Dan Bodah's show and was v impressed with 'Circle', are they from your neck of the woods perchance?
Mon. 12/8/08 2:43pm
From:

Best keystroke: Ctrl+Tab or Command+Tab for Mac - no need to use the mouse to shift between windows. Makes me 13.2% more efficient.

A Dvorak keyboard is supposed to help avoid carpal tunnel. Of course, you'll need to learn how type all over, I hear but it's worth it. Your desk/workstation ergonomics are essential. We had an ergomonics who would set up your chair,keyboard, desk to help avoid cts. It worked for me.
Mon. 12/8/08 2:46pm
From:
Liz B.
Thanks for all your carpal tunnel remedies! Ken says that I should only type with my index fingers... hmmm?! My ergo keyboard is on the way. Good luck to all you younguns and your texting ways!

I'd worry less about wrists and more about eyes. Anyone who grew up on crappy CRTs for at least 10 years is screwed; we'll all be blind before 60 from all over the optic nerve damage, not to mention the mini-seizures it probably induced.

......using index fingers to type....I didn't know there was any other way....hell I write complete service manuals that way an I don't have cts

Massage therapy is a great thing for RSI, Liz; you don't realize to what a great extent muscles far away from the wrist contribute to the problem. And it's a lot less expensive than you may think.

As for your touch of silver, it could only have come from fast, high living, and therefore is something to be proud of.

DDave-i have used hunt and peck for almost 40 years... still fine.. my touch of carpal tunnel comes from ... i have no idea.. right hand only. might very well be the mouse.. i just use reiki on it and exercise..

Just get a mousepad with one of those wrist protecting puffy areas in the front of it. That solved the problem entirely for me.
