my problem is i over use the right hand because the left hand and arm
issues. the right wrist really flared up after using the sawzall and it
bucked hard and all that force went into the right wrist.
i am also on tramadol, every 6 hours, so i over do it because i do not
feel the pain till later.

agree on the keyboards. i am basically one-handed typing so that
introduces all neew stress to the hands and wrist.

thank you for the information.
