The thought's appreciated just the same. I got used to this problem so much it's been a long time since I looked up remedies. Don't know why we humans (me anyway) get like that. When my left arm gets too much, I type exclusively with my right, like now.

And, I just remembered that I had tingling, numbness and dropping things but it was maybe 6 or 7 years ago but didn't connect it with RSI. It lasted a couple weeks. It was ulnar (funny-bone nerve) impingement of the left arm, my mouse one. It's like carpal tunnel. I was alarmed because I had movement but zero feeling in the last two fingers. I immediately looked up some online home remedies and they worked! Even the doctor was a bit surprised it resolved as it did.

I feel sorry for the young generation who are wearing out their thumbs on iPhones. They're going to be disabled by their 30s or 40s. Our thumbs have small muscles that can't take the strain, and give us all our unique skills. .
