Introduction
This blog will be about my experiences with RSI. I plan to write about how I have struggled with pain, the medical treatments that I have tried, and the alternative mice and keyboards that I have used.
RSI is short for repetitive strain injury and is sometimes interchangeable with the term "carpal tunnel". It is common among computer users (although it can also be caused by other types of repetitive motion, such as assembly line work at a factory).
I am only 22 years old, but I have had RSI for approximately six years already. I just have always loved computer programming. I now do it for a living, even though it hurts. I am seriously considering a change in career, though.
More to come later.
