    Does (or has) anyone here had RSI from working on a computer with a mouse all day every day? If so what does it do to you and how do you deal with it? I've been getting shooting pains in my index finder all day. I know some people who have had it and switched to Wacom tablets to solve the problem.

    What do i do Doctor Phil?

    I've been having the same problem since about a year.

    Tried almost every doctor, physician, chiropractor etc.. nothing really helped. Quite depressing really because I wasn't able to do the same amount of work as I used to.

    Also got me a Wacom tablet, which helped a bit...

    But then I discovered the Alexander Technique. Since I've been practicing it, my pains have (almost) disappeared, because it teaches you how to sit behind your desk etc.. Remember ergonomics aren't that important, the way you sit and move is.

    Well, that's my rsi-story..
